it is also known as formula for circumfrence which is 2 times pi times radius. if radius was 5 then the circumfrence would be 10pi.
Answer:
k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m
Explanation:
First we need to find the force applied by safe pn the spring:
F = Weight of Safe
F = mg
where,
F = Force Applied by the safe on the spring = ?
m = mass of safe = 800 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
F = (800 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
F = 7840 N
Now, using Hooke's Law:
F = kΔx
where,
K = Spring Constant = ?
Δx = compression = 46 cm = 0.46 m
Therefore,
7840 N = k (0.46 m)
k = 7840 N/0.46 m
<u>k = 17043.5 N/m = 17.04 KN/m</u>
