Use Hooke's Law for this (F = - k s ): Where F is the spring's restoring force; k is the spring constant; and s is the stretch. The negative sign means the spring's restoring force is opposite the stretch direction. You have a plot from weight [N] versus stretch [m]. The data forms a linear trend y = 3.662 * x + 1.67. How much will the spring stretch if 51.7 grams is hung on the spring? Answer in centimeters with three significant figures or N/A if not enough information is given to answer. When you calculate your ansswer, don't use the negative sign in the Hooke's Law formula. Just know that the negative sign simply denotes the force direction is opposite the stretch (or compression)

To understand the use of Hooke's law for a spring. Hooke's law states that the restoring force F⃗ on a spring when it has been stretched or compressed is proportional to the displacement x⃗ of the spring from its equilibrium position. The equilibrium position is the position at which the spring is neither stretched nor compressed. Recall that F⃗ ∝x⃗ means that F⃗ is equal to a constant times x⃗ . For a spring, the proportionality constant is called the spring constant and denoted...
1. According to Hooke's law, the force exerted by a spring is proportional to the amount of stretch (or change in length Ax) and is given by F = -KAX, where the minus sign indicates it is a restoring force. If a force of 120 N acts on a mass 250 g attached to a spring of constant K = 54.55 x 103 N/m. Calculate the following: The change in length Ax The angular frequency (w) The frequency (f) The...

N/m (b) If the 2.00-kg object is removed, how far will the spring stretch if a 1.00-kg block is hung on it? cm (c) How much work must an external agent do to stretch the same spring 9.00 cm from its unstretched position?
(1 point) Finding the work done in stretching or compressing a spring. Hooke's Law for Springs. According to Hooke's law, the force required to compress or stretch a spring from an equilibrium position is given by F(x) = kx, for some constant k. The value of k (measured in force units per unit length) depends on the physical characteristics of the spring. The constant k is called the spring constant and is always positive. Part 1. Suppose that it takes...
