Back to 3A - Oscillations
PIRA index: 3A20.10
Description
The stiffness of springs can affect their period of oscillation for a given mass.
Equipment
- two spring with different stiffnesses
- two equal masses
- rod attachments
Instructions
Connect both masses to the springs. The springs will stretch to different lenghts. Start both mass and springs oscillating in phase. They will slowly go out of phase as their periods of oscillation are not equal due to having different stiffnesses.
Keywords
spring, stiffness, oscillation, mass
