A mass spring system is in elevator which moves upward with an acceleration "a" . What will be effect on the measured value of spring constant compared to its value when elevator is at rest.
Since
K= F/x
At rest F=mg
But with acceleration
F=m(g+a)
So
I think the value is increased because the acceleration is added to the force .. Am I right ?
