    Get rocking, not talking
    The plant rocker needs to work for three different masses of plant
    A spring will produce regular oscillations
    Displacement from equilibrium and strength of spring affect the force
    A mass on a spring moves like a side-on view of circular motion
    A mass on a spring moves with simple harmonic motion
    Simple harmonic motion is sinusoidal
    Work out constants by comparing a situation-specific equation with a standard equation
    Question Clinic: The "This equation is like that one" Question
    But Anne forgot to mention someting ...
    The plants rock - and you rule!
    But now the plant rocker' s frequency has changed ...
    The frequency of a horizontal spring depends on the mass
    Will using a vertical spring make a difference?
    A pendulum swings with simple harmonic motion
    What does the frequency of a pendulum depend on?
    The pendulum design works!
    Question Clinic: The "Vertical spring" Question
    Question Clinic: The "How does this depend on that" Question
