A loaded spring is set in simple harmonic motion. The force that tends to restore the load to its equilibrium position is A.adhesive B.elastic C.frictional D.gravitational

A 25.0 cm tall spring is compressed by 12 mm when a 1.00 kg mass is placed on it.(i) (1 mark)Determine the spring constant of the spring.(ii) (1 mark)Calculate the elastic potential energy stored in the spring.(iii) (1 mark)Where did the energy stored in the spring 'come from'?(iv) (2 marks)The spring is now placed horizontally on a frictionless surface with one end attached to a wall and a 740 g mass attached to the other end. The mass is given a push to set it oscillating. What is the frequency of oscillation?(v) (2 marks)A pendulum is placed above the mass-spring system and the bob oscillates back and forth exactly in time with the mass. How long is the pendulum?

A small block of mass 100 g is tied to a spring of spring constant 7.5 N m−1 and length 20 cm. The other end of spring is fixed at a particular point A. If the block moves in a circular path on a smooth horizontal surface with constant angular velocity 5 rad s−1about point A, then tension in the spring is

HOOKE’S LAWthe extension of a spring is in direct proportion withthe load added to it

Spring calculations: A spring stretches 0.150n m when a 0.3 kgmass is gently suspended from it. The spring is then set uphorizontally with the 0.3 kg mass resting on the frictionless table.The mass is pulled so that the spring is stretched 0.1 m from theequilibrium point and released from rest. Determine a) the springstiffness constant k, b) the amplitude of the maximum acceleration.

The weight suspended from a spring oscillates up and down. The acceleration of weight will be zero at
