    Harmonic oscilator
    An harmonic oscilator is made by hanging a mass of 23g to the end of a spring and separating the mass 7.5cm from it´s balance position. Before, we mesured the length without moving and without the mass which was 23,3cm and then with the mass on was 28.8cm. Find the angular velocity (pulse)

    F=Kx
    mg=k0.055
    0.023x9.81=k0.055
    k=4.1
    w=Sqrt(k/m)=Sqrt(4.1/0.023)=13.25 rad/s
    Yes I did it, thanks a lot, I guess I just had to look at it with fresh eyes

    Well done, some problems just require you to put a little more attention for you to solve :)

    One tiny detail. Since the data given to you is to 3 sf, your final answer should also be in 3 sf, namely, 13.3 rad/s.
