In order for the spring to come to a rest state, the spring must have a spring force that is equal to the force of gravity acting on the spring. I included the full explanation of the math in this post, and I also included how to use the Spring module and some examples of things that can be made using the Spring module.Ī second order differential equation is made using the following physics equations:
This spring module is able to accurately replicate real springs. It’s simple to use and is very useful in creating recoil systems, realistic spring systems, and anything else you can imagine a spring is useful for. This module creates a general solution to a second order differential equation given some inputs. I’ve created a module that allows you to create a realistic spring object that acts in one direction.
