In a simple harmonic motion experiment, the calculated spring constant values based on the elongations are 44.44 N/m, 46.80 N/m, 53.45 N/m, 30.60 N/m, and 37.86 N/m. Let's assume we are plotting the same data, elongation vs the weights, and the slope of this graph is 43.41 N/m. What is % difference in spring constant values based on these two different methods?
