Unit 3 - Oscillations
Now that we have an Arudino setup with ultrasound, accelerometer, and bluetooth we can test it on a mass spring systems and study oscillations.

Physics Background
To review physics laws on mechanics, please check out OpenStax texbook. Here are important Chapters with respect to oscillations:
Lab 3A: Vertical Mass-Spring
In this lab, we explore a vertical mass-spring system. We will learn how to find the spring constant and collect both the ultrasound and accelerometer data for oscillations by using the Arduino as the mass in the mass-spring system.
