Choose a spring constant (k) constant below 500 N/m (different than 200N/m). Click all - Applied force, Spring force, Displacement, Equilibrium position and values. Use the red bar to move away from zero; for example at applied force of 18 N, the displacement is 0.090 m and at that stretch, applied force and spring force are equal.
Force (N)
Displacement (m)
Change the spring constant to a value higher than 500N/m.
Force (N)
Displacement(m)
1. Plot the Force (y-axis) vs displacement (x-axis) on EXCEL or on piece of paper. Label the axes and include the units.
Insert the graph (Excel or picture) in the space below:
2. Find the spring constant for the spring in Newton/meters from the slope the graph.
3. What forces will stretch each spring for 0.3 m?
” Energy”. Choose k=400N/m, select “Energy Plot”, “Applied Force”, “Displacement”, “Equilibrium Position”. Move the slide of displacement from 0 to maximum on both the positive and negative side.
What is the maximum potential energy? Was it for the positive or negative displacement?
What is the minimum potential energy?
What is the value of displacement when the energy is half of the maximum value?
What is the value of energy when the displacement is half of the maximum value?
