Where Gravity rely's on only mass and distance and nothing else, so the weight on the planets will vary like you have stated. However Mars is smaller than Mercury, so the weight on Mars will be less, and the weight on Mercury will be more. Think this way.

More Mass = More Gravity = More Weight

Less Mass = Less Gravity = Less Weight

Answer:

a) F = 680 N, b) W = 215 .4 J , c) F = 1278.4 N

Explanation:

a) Hooke's law is

F = k x

To find the displacement (x) let's use the elastic energy equation

$K_{e}$ = ½ k x²

k = 2 $K_{e}$ / x²

k = 2 85.0 / 0.250²

k = 2720 N / m

We replace and look for elastic force

F = 2720 0.250

F = 680 N

b) The definition of work is

W = ΔEm

W = $K_{ef}$ - $K_{eo}$

W = ½ k ( $x_{f}$ ² - x₀²)

The final distance

$x_{f}$ = 0.250 +0.220

$x_{f}$ = 0.4750 m

We calculate the work

W = ½ 2720 (0.47² - 0.25²)

W = 215 .4 J

We calculate the strength

F = k $x_{f}$

F = 2720 0.470

F = 1278.4 N
