This is from the lecture notes for 11/08 and I can't find the mass of the suspended weight in the notes and I wasn't there so I don't have those notes. What was the mass?

I was sure this was at the beginning of the notes. However when I inserted the pictures of the system, I might have accidentally deleted it. In any case I just check and, sure enough, it wasn't there. Here is the info you need:

The suspended mass is about .2 kg.

The force constant for the rubber band chain is about 30 Newtons / cm.

Your submission appears to have run together with a submission from a distance student, consisting of an experiment similar to but not the same as some you have done. Let me know if there was more to that message, but for the moment I'll assume that document isn't yours.
