The weight required to stretch the spring 12.5 cm is 7.5 N (Option A)

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • Initial weight (W₁) = 3 N
  • Initial Length (L₁) = 5 cm
  • New length (L₂) = 12.5 cm
  • New Weight (W₂) =?

<h3>How to determine the new weight </h3>

The new weight required to stretch the spring can be obtained as follow:

W₁ / L₁ = W₂ / L₂

3 / 5 = W₂ / 12.5

Cross multiply

W₂ × 5 = 3 × 12.5

Divide both sides by 5

W₂ = (3 × 12.5) / 5

W₂ = 7.5 N

A sled is slowing down at the bottom of a snowy hill.
Kitty [74]

Answer:

A sled and its rider are moving at a speed of along a horizontal stretch of snow, as Figure 4.24a illustrates. The snow exerts a kinetic frictional force on the runners of the sled, so the sled slows down and eventually comes to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.050. What is the displacement x of the sled?
