To determine the period of oscillation of a mass attached to a weightless spring without using a clock, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Set Up the Experiment**: - Hang the weightless spring from a fixed point (like a ceiling) using a suitable support. Ensure that the spring is vertical and can oscillate freely. 2. **Attach the Known Mass**: ...
