    time of oscillation of a slinky Introduction
 In the 1950’s‚ Richard James accidentally discovered what we called today as the ‘slinky’. As he was trying to engineer a way to keep sensitive ship equipment steady at sea‚ he accidentally knocked some springs off the shelf which caused them to fall. He noticed that these springs appeared to be gracefully “walking” down the shelves instead of them simply falling down. James’ accidental discovery sparked way for further understanding of springs. Nowadays

    AIM: Finding the gravitational field strength by using a simple harmonic motion of a spring and slotted masses. INTRODUCTION: When a mass suspended from a spring is displaced‚ due to the acceleration‚ kg s-2‚ from its equilibrium and released it will oscillate up and down with a kind of motion called simple harmonic motion‚ shm. The period (T)‚ time taken to measure for one complete oscillation‚ of this motion is: m/kg =

    ABSTRACT: The lab of one dimensional motion is a series of experiments that deal with different types of motion in a single direction. In the first experiment‚ one dimensional motion of a small cart on an air track is measured in a one photogate system. The acceleration was calculated by the infrared light emitting electrode of the photogate sensing the slacks on the picket fence. The calculation for gravity yielded 9.63 m/s^2‚ which is consistent with the accepted value of 9.8m/s^2. In the
