[QUOTE="Treversal, post: 180712, member: 11111"] The best explanation I have heard, which is still difficult to accept, is that a horizontal slinky stretched and released will move toward its center from both ends simultaneously. But when it is suspended vertically the bottom part fights against gravity and its upward force is cancelled out by the force of gravity so that it does not move. But is the slinky's contracting force always equal to gravity - because of mass/weight/size no matter the material(s) used? Seems strange that no slinky would move up even a little but will always be precisely cancelled out by gravity - if that is the case. [/QUOTE]
