Abstract: Many proofs of the arithmetic mean harmonic mean inequality have been proposed based on the rich connections between mathematics and physics. Sometimes the Arithmetic Mean Harmonic Mean inequality is proved by using electric networks. In this note, we use a simple set of two springs, instead of four springs which would be the equivalent set to those using electric networks.
