Spring Constants & Periods By varying the mass placed on a spring, the period of oscillation can be changed. When multiple data sets are collected and plotted, the spring constant can be determined. Before data was collected, the minimum and maximum masses were determined by visually watching the harmonic motion. For the minimum, a mass was chosen such that the resulting simple harmonic motion had an appreciable amplitude without significant dampening over ten periods. For the maximum, the mass was...
