Okay thank you so much for helping me!

Then it'd be 4N/m since 1N/.25m=4N/m right? And I can use that for the pink and blue masses too? Sorry I thought you meant that it was wrong earlier when I had said it so I got really confused.

is this clearer? But how could I find the spring constant with just the displacement or period if k=f/x and f=mg?

The period and the displacement in the post problem is for the pink object but wouldn't the spring constant I found for the 100g object work for all of them? the information I used to find the spring constant I got from the 100g object (the .25m and 1N).

omg wait I didn't think about the 100g thank you. The displacement is 25cm(.25m) and F is 1N so the K=4N/m right? And that's the K I would use for the other masses?

I am a struggling junior taking AP Physics. Even though it's already the second semester I'm still not fully understanding the content and have a hard time solving problems and labs, so I thought joining a forum would help.

time/#periods=T= 30.58/10= 3.058 Displacement=.6m T=3.058 I tried to rearrange hooke's formula to k=f/x but f=mg and I don't have mass. Using the period formula is also hard because T=2π( √m/k) and I have neither m or k :/ Please help thanks.
