I'm Not Trying to be a smartass but,
ShaZam ??? !!!

Is there any way to make the magnetic thing be linear
like possibly using a Hall effect sensor an electro magnet and a pid loop
like a automobile speed control ?

I am possibly thinking of using magnetic repulsion/attraction  to
reduce the pull of gravity and thus increase the
period of a vertical geophone ?

You need an acceleration in the opposite direction
not quite as powerful as the Earths ?
Does not matter what causes the acceleration in
the opposite direction (UP) ?

Any ideas in how to do such a thing ?

Regards,
geoff

Subject: Re: Springs and Gravity or Magnitism  Hello Chris,  It is my guess by what you say it may be possible to create a spring 
with just about any relationship like fitting the curve of force like any graph of a conic section ? . Hi Geoff, Probably up to 
cubic over small ranges..I understand magnetic attraction to be log base two ? Double the distance and divide the force by four ? 
Same with electrostatic ??   No, It's more complicated. You have two poles on every magnet. The force between any two poles is 
inverse square law, but the force on a magnet involves both poles. So there may be a rotational as well as a linear forces. 
Regards,   Chris
