Spring constant, k The change in the force per unit length change of the spring.

Coefficient of subgrade reaction, k :

Note: Circular frequency defines the rate of oscillation in term of radians per unit
time; 2π radians being equal to one complete cycle of rotation.

Period, T: The time required for the motion to begin repeating itself.
