Oscillations Demo: Mass Spring System

This demonstration investigates the dependence of the period of the mass-spring system on the mass, the spring constant, and the amplitude.
This demonstration was created at Utah State University by Professor Boyd F. Edwards, assisted by James Coburn (demonstration specialist), David Evans (videography), and Rebecca Whitney (closed captions), with support from Jan Sojka, Physics Department Head, and Robert Wagner, Executive Vice Provost and Dean of Academic and Instructional Services.

    Test: "What's time period of an oscillation?" Me: "It's the time between the booms."

    Sir, so I get that the spring mass system is almost equivalent to the oscillation of a simple pendulum where the T for the former depends on mass of suspended spring, and that of the latter relies on length of pendulum and acceleration due to gravity. Right? Hence, does any system representing an oscillation or an SHM (simple harmonic motion) always depends on the factor of 2π √something/√something?

  • @physicsdemos

    Certainly, the period of the simple pendulum and the period of the mass spring system have the form you've described, but this is not necessarily true generally.

    Set that frequency to 1/T which will give you the period, and then use the period equation shown in the video to find the spring constant.

    let's say we do this experiment on the moon. Does this influence the period? and if so, does this mean the spring constant changes? because the mass stays the same and the spring constant is the only other variable

    Constant forces doesn't effect shm so I guess doing the same experiment on moon will not have any affect on spring constant and shm.

    Yes. It is just a lot harder to eliminate non-ideal factors when working with compressed springs. One issue you encounter in compression that you don't encounter in tension, is the phenomenon of buckling.

    "Boom" is an example of onomatopoeia. A word with a pronunciation that resembles a sound in the real world. Imagine that the mass-spring oscillation hits a drum at the bottom of its travel length. "Boom" is the sound you would hear.
