For the oscillations of a spring with spring constant k, the false statement is
Answer: C
The false statement is The spring constant is independent of the elastic properties of the spring.
The spring constant is a measure of the spring's stiffness, and it depends directly on the elastic properties (the material's modulus) and on the spring's dimensions. So this statement is false.
The others are true: stiff springs have large k and soft springs small k; for small oscillations the restoring force is proportional to displacement, giving SHM; and the period \(T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}\) depends on k.
