Answer:

Explanation:

The general consensus is that it's more “natural” to define distance (meter) and time (second) and as base units, and derive velocity a the ratio between them. ...

A spring scale hung from the ceiling stretches by 6.4 cm when a 2.0 kg mass is hung from it. The 2.0 kg mass is removed and repl
dolphi86 [110]
In the first case, the force acting on the spring is the weight of the mass:
F=mg=(2.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=19.6N
This force causes a stretching of x=6.4 cm=0.064 m on the spring, so we can use these data to find the spring constant:
k= \frac{F}{x}= \frac{19.6 N}{0.064 m}=306.3 N/m

In the second case, the first mass is replaced with a second mass, whose weight is
F=mg=(2.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=24.5 N
And since we know the spring constant, we can calculate the new elongation of the spring:
x= \frac{F}{k}= \frac{24.5 N}{306.3 N/m}=0.080 m=8.0 cm
