I oscillated a spring attached to a force sensor above a position sensor. The position and force sensors were zeroed at the spring's equilibrium. The graph below was my result. I'm wondering as to why the graph isn't a perfect line. It makes sense that the force applied on the force sensor would be lower when the spring is rebounding up but I'm not sure why from a physics standpoint. Thanks so much
