Principle
The spring constant D is determined for different
experimental set-ups from the oscillation period and the suspended
mass.
Tasks
- Determination of the spring constant D for different
springs.
- Determination of the spring constant for springs linked in
parallel.
- Determination of the spring constant for springs linked in
series.
Benefits
- Large and sturdy set-up suitable for demonstration and lab courses as well
- Data logging reveals instantaneous results during measurement
