Spring Oscillation

Study simple harmonic motion with a mass-spring system. Explore Hooke's Law, energy transformations, and the effects of damping.

Spring Constant (k)20.0 N/m

Mass (m)1.0 kg

Initial Displacement2.0 m

Damping (b)0.00

Displacement0.00 m

Velocity0.00 m/s

Acceleration0.00 m/s²

PE (Spring)0.00 J

KE0.00 J

Period (T)— s

F = -kx (Hooke's Law)

x(t) = A·cos(ωt)

ω = √(k/m)

T = 2π·√(m/k)

PE = ½kx², KE = ½mv²
