OCR J259
Suggested PAG activity — PAG 2 – Forces / example: investigate forces on springs
OCR requires coverage of PAG 2 force-measurement techniques including spring extension; the spring investigation is an example activity rather than a uniquely prescribed method.
Interactive Practical · GCSE Physics
Force and extension of a spring
Hang 100 g masses on a spring one at a time, read the pointer against a metre rule as it settles, then plot force against extension to find the spring constant and the limit of proportionality.
This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
