Answer:
350 N/m
Explanation:
If we are assuming the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material, then by Hooke's law the spring constant of the cord is simply the ratio between the force 70N acting on the cord to stretch 20cm or 0.2m
k = 70 / 0.2 = 350 N/m
The spring constant is 350 N/m
Answer:
805.48N/m
Explanation:
According to Hookes law
F = Ke
F is the force = mg
F = 2.4×9.8 = 23.52N
e is the extension = 2.92cm = 0.0292m
Force constant K = F/e
K = 23.52/0.0292
K = 805.48N/m
Hence the force constant of the spring is 805.48N/m
Material that is not attracted to metal
