What happens when you push a spring? How is this different than pulling it? (Hooke’s Law)

2 answers:

A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.Springs come in a huge variety of different forms, but the simple metal coil spring is probably the most familiar. Springs are an essential part of almost all moderately complex mechanical devices; from ball-point pens to racing car engines.

When you push a spring you are putting force on it, or rather forcing the spring onto its self. This is different than pulling the spring because when you push it and let go it will spring but if you pull it its would not move as far as it would if you push it. Pulling the spring would most likely deform the spring will pushing it would cause it to spring back into place.

<u>Hooke's law states that the force that extends or compresses a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance.</u>

A positive force on the balance indicates a downward force on the silver sphere while a negative force on the balance indicates

anastassius [24]

The two spheres have opposite charges.

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>What are types charge?</h3>

A charge can be negatively charged or positively charged.

When two charges have opposite signs, that is positive and negative signs, the two charges will attract each other.
When the two charges have the same sign, it causes repulsion.

When a positive charge points downwards ↓ and the negative charge points upwards ↑, this causes attraction and shows that the two charges are different.

Thus, we can conclude that the two spheres have opposite charges.
