Free Vibrations Of A Beam And Spring is part of a range that explores free vibrations in simple one degree of freedom systems.
It introduces students to key scientific terms such as:
Simple harmonic motion and frequency of oscillation
Spring constant and Hookes Law
Phase difference between displacement and its derivatives
Moment of inertia
Oscillation damping.
Free Vibrations Of A Beam And Spring fits to the sturdy Test Frame for study or demonstration.
This common system appears in machines and vehicle suspensions. You can compare this with the mass-spring system, except the mass moment inertia of the beam replaces the simple mass. This product includes a beam pivoted at one end, with the other end suspended by a coiled spring.
