Laboratory information

With this lab, you can control the distance to which to move a spring, and see and measure its behavior once it is released. This experiment will provide you a set of real data that you can use to analyze the behavior of the spring depending on the distance, the time, and other variables.

What students do

Operate real equipment and reason from the measurements.

Recommended level: University & College, High School
