Period vs Mass Straighten the Curve (11 pts) 1.5 Mass T (kg) 0.200 (s) 0.562 1.0 0.400 0.795 0.600 0.973 0.800 1.12 1.000 1.26 0.5 A series of masses are attached to a vertical spring and set in oscillation. After analyzing the experimental data the relationship between Period and Mass is found to be nonlinear. The data table produced and the corresponding graph are shown above and right. In order to find the exact relation you will need to straighten the curve by making a new table of values and a new linear graph. Also find the slope, the equation of the line, and the value of the spring constant. 0.0 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1.0 Mass (kg) Period (s)

Simple harmonic motion is a type of periodic motion in which an object undergoes oscillatory motion. The restoring force exerted by the object exhibiting SHM is proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium position. The force is directed towards…

A simple pendulum comprises a heavy mass (called bob) attached to one end of the weightless and flexible string.

In Physics, oscillation means a repetitive motion that happens in a variation with respect to time. There is usually a central value, where the object would be at rest. Additionally, there are two or more positions between which the repetitive motion tak…
