Homework Equations
Hooke's law. F = kΔx
ω = sqrt(k/m)
The Attempt at a Solution
For part A
F = mg = kΔx
k = mg/Δx
g is a constant so the spring constant is proportional to the mass and inversely proportional to the change in distance that the spring stretches
My answer is from smallest to largest spring constant: c < A = B < D
But the answer key says the answer is c < B = D < A
What am I doing wrong?
