Problem 6.12: An oscillating mass on a spring
Please wait for the animation to completely load.
A ball on an air track is attached to a compressed spring (at x = 0 m the spring is unstretched) as shown in the animation (position is given in meters and time is given in seconds). Which area properly represents the work done by the spring during the animation (assume v = 0 m/s at the beginning and end of the animation)? Restart.
Physlets were developed at Davidson College and converted from Java to JavaScript using the SwingJS system developed at St. Olaf College.
