Answer:

40 N/m

Explanation:

F = -kx (This is the Hooke's Law equation)

F is the force the spring exerts = 8 N

-k = spring constant

x = displacement (The distance stretched past it's natural length) = 20cm

x needs to be in meters, and 20 cm is = to 0.2 meters

Finally:

8N = -k (0.2m)

-k = 8N / 0.2 m

k = -40 N/m

Do you have to use significant figures in converting temperatures
schepotkina [342]
Not only in converting temperatures I think, we always use significant figures every time we want to make some experimental report using the exact data from our experiment. If that isn't experimental report ( some exercise/questions from your textbook) it's not necessary

A skydiver of mass 113kg
yan [13]

Answer:

Option b.

Explanation:

Weight of skydiver = mass × acceleration due to gravity

= 113 × 9.81 N

= 1108.53 N

Now,

The weight is acting downwards and air resistance is acting upwards. So,

Net force = weight - air resistance

Net force = 1108.53 - 660

Net force = 448.53

Closest value is option b.
