I think B is the most correct, because logically it's harder to bend a stiffer spring than it is to bend a softer one. Also, I don't think length comes into play. So B.

Answer:

B. The stiffer the spring, the greater the force required to restore its position.

Explanation:

The 'restoring force' (the force required to restore the position of a spring) is given by:

F=-kx

where

F is the restoring force

k is the spring constant, which determines its stiffness (the higher the value of k, the stiffer the spring)

x is the displacement of the spring relative to its natural length

From the formula, we see that the higher the value of k (so, the stiffer the spring), the larger the restoring force, so the correct option is

B. The stiffer the spring, the greater the force required to restore its position

A hockey puck moves 28 m southward then 14 m northward and finally 4 m southward Distance? And Magnitude and Direction
Radda [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

A hockey puck moves 28 m southward then 14 m northward and finally 4 m southward distance.

The total path covered is called distance and the shortest path covered is called displacement.

Distance = 28 m + 14 m + 4 m

Distance = 46 m

Let the nothward direction is positive y axis and southward direction is negative y axis.

Displacement is equal to the difference of final position and the initial position.

Displacement =-28 m - (-4 m)

= -24 m

The magnitude of displacement is in south direction.

Alla [95]

Answer:

New length = 10.2 m

Explanation:

Let ΔL  = change in length

     ΔT = change in the temperature

     L(0) = intial length

     α = coeffient of linear expansion

Then

ΔL = αL(0)ΔT

    =(2.4×10^-5)(10)(100-20)

    =0.0192 m

New length = L(0) + ΔL

                   = 10 + 0.0192

                   = 10.2 m
