Some Static Properties of Slinky
arXiv:1801.04419 · doi:10.1088/1361-6404/aacaae
Abstract
In this paper we use a simple discrete model for Slinky to explore some of its static properties. We derive some relations for vertically and U-shaped suspended Slinkies, based on which, some demonstrations are proposed that can be simply done in freshmen physics classes.
