G1-55
Illustrate the measurement of inertial mass using SHM.
A mass is placed on the platform and set into motion, executing SHM horizontally. The period of the oscillation T = (1/2 pi) SQRT ((M+m)/k), where M is the mass of the platform and m is the unknown mass. Making period measurements with and without the unknown mass m one can determine its inertial mass.
