Mass On A Spring Video Tutorial

The Mass On A Spring Video Tutorial describes the manner in which force, speed, acceleration, position, and kinetic and potential energies change over the course of the back-and-forth vibrational cycle of a mass on a spring. Both horizontal and vertical springs are addressed. Free-body diagrams, vector diagrams, position-time plots, velocity-time plots, and energy bar charts are among the representations that are presented in the video. The video lesson answers the following question:

  1. How does the force, acceleration, speed, position, and kinetic and potential energy of a vibrating mass on a spring change over the course of a cycle?
