- Horizontal Oscillations of a Spring-Mass System
Consider a system containing a spring with a block of mass m attached to it on a smooth horizontal surface (frictionless surface) as shown below. The spring constant = k.
At this point, the block is at its central or equilibrium position, O.
If the mass is pulled towards the right, through a small displacement x from its equilibrium position, and then released, it will oscillate back and forth its equilibrium position, O.
