Episode 303: Mass-Spring Systems
In this learning episode, from the Institute of Physics, students use experimental techniques and modelling to investigate simple harmonic motion (SHM). The activities include discussions, practical investigations and worked examples, including: • linking Hooke's law and SHM • investigating a loaded spring oscillator • modelling springs and masses • student calculations, with solutions provided
