TP N°3 :
Spring constant
I. Introduction:
1.Objectives of the experiment:
1. Directly determine the spring constant K of a spring by
measuring the clongation versus applied force.
2. Determine the spring constant k from measurements of the
period T of oscillation for different values of mass
3. Indirect determination of k by the analysis of the
dependence of the period T on the miss M
2. EQUIPMENTLIST:
1. Spring
2. meter stick
3. table clamps
4. rods
5. Calibrated Hooked Masses
