Resonant frequency expressionsĪ mass on a spring has a single resonant frequency determined by its spring constant k and the mass m. Default values will be entered for any missing data, but those values may be changed and the calculation repeated. Then the frequency is f = Hz and the angular frequency = rad/s.Īngular Frequency = sqrt ( Spring constant / ( Mass ) ω = sqrt ( k / m )Īny of the parameters in the equation can be calculated by clicking on the active word in the relationship above.
The frequency of simple harmonic motion like a mass on a spring is determined by the mass m and the stiffness of the spring expressed in terms of a spring constant k ( see Hooke's Law): Simple Harmonic Motion Simple Harmonic Motion Frequency
