Question

Select the stopwatch, and time how long it takes for a weight to oscillate back and forth 10 times (a single oscillation is represented by a return to a weight's original position). The period of oscillation T is this time divided by 10. The frequency of oscillation is 1/T. How does the frequency of oscillation depend on the value of the mass?

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass in inversly proportional to the frequency of oscillation. The formula for the frequency of oscillation is

f = 1/2pie SQRT (k/m)

This formula shows that mass is inversly proportional to frequency, that means if the mass increases frequency will decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The frequency decreases as the mass increases.
