Conservation of Mechanical Energy: Mass on a Vertical Spring

Description
This is a simulation showing a mass oscillating on the end of a spring. The kinetic energy, gravitational and elastic potential energies are shown in bar graph form. Adjust the mass and the spring constant, then hit the RUN button. Observe the various forms of energy using the bar graphs.
