Function

Intended for experimental study, physics laboratory work, and conducting physics experiments on: Dynamics. The helical spring and Hooke's Law. Temporary deformation, elastic deformation. Permanent deformation, plastic deformation. Conservation of Energy. Work and energy in a mass and helical spring system. Hydrostatics. The force called buoyancy. The vertical buoyant force acting on bodies submerged in fluids. Archimedes' principle. What is meant by fluid. The weight of the volume of water displaced. Determining the density of a liquid from buoyancy in a mixture of water and salt. Determining the density of a solid through buoyancy. Wave motion. Simple harmonic motion (SHM) in a mass and oscillating helical spring system. The equation defining SHM. Dynamic determination of the K of a helical spring, mass and spring oscillator, etc. Note: Time interval meter not included.
