Hi, Justupursun!
You can calculate the mass based on how much springs are compressed. Here is an example using two 50N/m springs (which give 100N/m) and a 25kg textbox. To calculate the weight, it subtracts the height from the initial height to get how much the springs are compressed and multiplies that with the spring constant.
