Answer:
k = 0.6 N/m
Explanation:
The time period of a spring mass oscillation system is given by the following formula:
T = 2π√(m/k)
where,
T = Time Period of Oscillation = 10 s
m = Mass attached to the spring = 1.5 kg
k = spring constant = ?
Therefore,
10 s = 2π√(1.5 kg/k)
squaring on both sides we get:
100 s² = 4π²(1.5 kg/k)
k = 6π² kg/100 s²
k = 0.6 N/m
