A. How does changing the length of a spring (keeping everything else the same) affect the period of oscillation?
B. How does changing the mass hung on a spring (keeping everything else the same) affect the period of oscillation?
C. How does changing the amount of damping (keeping everything else the same) affect the oscillation?
Time period for a Spring Oscilltion is given by,
That is Time Period only depend on mass (m) and spring constant (k).
A. )
Keeping everything else the same , Change of length of a spring doesnot affect the period of oscillation of spring
B )
Changing the mass will change the period of oscillation. They are directly proportional. If mass increases, then period of oscillation also increases and vice-versa.
C)
All practical oscillations are damped. That is the oscillations eventually die out ( stops oscillation ) after some time as damping increases.
