Calugay______ An experiment to obtain and compare the spring constants of 3 strings (soft‚ medium‚ and hard) obtained in 2 ways (using the energy chapter and the dynamics chapter)‚ to confirm that Hooke’s Law is valid over a range of initial displacements‚ and to find the acceleration due to gravity on unknown Planet X. Problem: What are the spring constants of 3 strings (soft‚ medium‚ and hard) and how do they compare? Theory: To find the spring constants of each string‚ we can calculate the velocity
