To determine

The steps that followed in part a in order to determine the shape of the spring.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
1.   Record the slopes from the best fit lines for both the Thin Spring and the Thick spring. (What are the units of the slopes? They do have units! Be sure to show the units in your answer here).   2. Which spring has the graph with the greater slope, the Thin Spring or the Thick Spring? Answer in a complete sentence.   3. The slope shows the amount of displacement of the spring per amount of hanging mass. Use either the slopes or the equations from your trendlines to predict how much the spring would stretch for a 500 g (0.50 kg) mass. Do this for both the Thin and Thick Springs.   4.The Spring Constant you adjusted in lab is related to the stiffness of the spring – stiffer springs need more mass to “pull” them down the same displacement. If you increase the spring constant, what would happen to the slope (rise/run) of the graph you create? Answer in complete sentences and use your data (either graphs or the tables) as evidence.
Analyze the graph shown corresponding to the motion of a 2kg block attached to a spring in a horizontal plane. Find the distance traveled, in m, in one period. Suggestions: Write your result using two figures after the period (round to the end using the rounding rules) and do not use commas to separate miles. Eg if you got 2,345.1441 you should write 2345.14 Do not put units to your answer. Ejm if you got 1,815V you should write 1815.00
Using the pic … plz answer these question briefly 1- The spring is characterized by the spring constant, moreover, the force per displacement. How is the slope related to the spring constant ? 2- How is the last column in the table 4 related to the spring constant ? What if we average the values of last column in Table 4? Explain your answers? 3- What is the meaning y-intercept ? Do you understand why it is always better use y=mx+b as opposed to y=mx in performing a curve fit ?
