A block is suspended from a spring. The spring is stretched .2 meters. If the spring constant is 200 newtons per meters, what is
AleksandrR [38]
The spring force = kx = mg.
k is spring constant = 200 N/m
x is the spring elongation = 0.2 m
F = 200×0.2= 40 N
Now, F = mg wil be the weight of the object
Thus, weight is 40 N.
Thus, now we can also find the mass of object, m = F/g = 40 N/9.8
Because g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec ^2
m = 4.08 kg

The four wheels of a car are connected to the car's body by spring assemblies that let the wheels move up and down over bumps an
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The approximate  spring constant is  k =  55533.33 \  N/m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the person is  m =  68 \ kg

     The  dip of the car is  x =  1.2 \ cm  =  0.012 \ m

Generally according to hooks law  

        F  =  k * x

here the force F is the weight of the person which is mathematically represented as

         F =  m * g

=>    m * g  =  k * x

=>     k  =  \frac{m * g }{x }

=>    k  =  \frac{68 *  9.8}{ 0.012}

=>   k =  55533.33 \  N/m

Which of these could NOT be used to find the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane?
34kurt
The "c) percent efficiency" could not be used to find the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane. There are two formulae that could be used to determine the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane which stated as MA = Length/rise and Wout=Win. MA is the mechanical advantage, Wout is the output force, Win is the input force, and "rise" is the height of the inclined plane<span>.</span>
