Linear mass Density of vertically suspended heavy springs
arXiv:1909.08689
Abstract
In the present article the linear mass Density for vertically suspended heavy springs is calculated for two different cases. First for a spring of invariable length suspended at the top and fixed at the bottom of the spring, then for a hanging heavy spring with an additional load. Both cases are solved by minimizing the total energy which is a sum of potential energy and energy due to the deformation.
