Question

Julian tests four springs and records the results in the table

Answer 1

Answer:

list of spring in order of increasing spring constant is given by,

W, Y, X, Z

Explanation:

Spring W:

Magnitude of Force applied on the spring is given by,

F = k x

Where, F = force applied

k = spring constant

x displacement

k = F/x

k = 20 / 0.5

k = 40 N/m

Spring X:

Magnitude of Force applied on the spring is given by,

F = k x

Where, F = force applied

k = spring constant

x displacement

k = F/x

k = 60 / 0.3

k = 200 N/m

Spring Y:

Magnitude of Force applied on the spring is given by,

F = k x

Where, F = force applied

k = spring constant

x displacement

k = F/x

k = 40 / 0.4

k = 100 N/m

Spring Z:

Magnitude of Force applied on the spring is given by,

F = k x

Where, F = force applied

k = spring constant

x displacement

k = F/x

k = 50 / 0.1

k = 500 N/m

Thus, list of spring in order of increasing spring constant is given by,

W, Y, X, Z

Answer 2

the correct answer is a. w,y,x,z.
