    EXPERIMENT NO: 07

    NAME OF THE EXPERIMENT: Determination of spring constant of a spring.

    Theory:

    We know, in the case of spring, within elastic limit, force ∝ extension( which is Hooke’s law).

    ∴ F ∝ y or F=k y or –k y , where k is the spring constant.


    𝐹
    ∴k = N/m…………………….(1)
    𝑦

    Apparatus:

    A spiral spring A, scale pan B, meter scale C, two clams and stands, two boxes of weight, light pointer P
    for spring etc.

    Procedure:

    1. The spring from the clamp was suspended and the light pointer P was attached to the spring. A
    vertical meter scale C was fixed beside the spring A.
    2. The scale pan,B was attach to the lower end of the spring and then suitable load was added and
    the reading of the pointer P was noted and extension(y) for each load was noted.
    3. Procedure(2) was repeated several times increasing load gradually.

    4. A graph oh load(m) vs extension (y) was drawn and from the graph was found out
    𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑒
    and the from education (1) spring constant was determined.

    5 50 200 28.6 15.1
    6 50 250 33.5 20.0
    Calculations:
    From graph, we get

    1 𝑚 200−50 150
    ∴ = = = =12.5 gm/cm
    𝑠𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑒 𝑦 16−4 12

    𝑚𝑔
    𝑘= =12.5 gm/cm ×9.8 ms -2 =1.25 kg/m ×9.8 ms -2
    𝑦

    K=12.25 Nm -1

    Results: Spring constant, K=12.25 Nm -1

    Precautions:

    1. Reading of pointer should be taken avoiding parallax error.


    2. Load should be added within elastic limit.
    3. Avoiding jerking load should be given.
