Intrinsic, damped, and forced spring oscillations
Remote laboratory task Intrinsic, damped and forced oscillations on a spring allows one to study the intrinsic oscillations in a situation where the spring is vibrated by an electromagnetic force of a selected frequency. After the electromagnetic force is no longer applied (switched off), damped oscillations can also be studied. Furthermore, this problem can be used to study the forced oscillations in the vicinity of the spring resonance, i.e. at different frequencies of the exciting electromagnetic force we can observe amplitude dependencies, phase relations, energy transfer, etc.
