Spring Oscillation in Vertical Position

Spring Oscillation in Vertical Position

### Equilibrium Extension

$$mg=kx_0$$

### Extension

$$x_0=\frac{mg}{k}$$

### Terminologies

- x₀ → Equilibrium extension.

- m → Mass.

- k → Spring constant.

### Conditions / Special Cases

Gravity only shifts mean position.

### Usage

- Used in vertical spring SHM problems.
