This is a group of interactive science lessons that use the Mass and Spring Lab simulation created by the Physics Education Technology Team (PhET) at the University of Colorado in Boulder. Exploring masses and springs is a great way to understand many fields in Physics. Understanding the behavior of a mass on a spring will improve your understanding of sound, light, and the configurations of DNA. Follow me to where it all starts!

• Hooke's Law explores forces and Hooke's Law.
• Oscillations explores oscillatory motion and its period.
