When all that body heat hits the white clothing covering it, it gets reflected right back towards the body. ... The best color to keep cool in the heat, it turns out, is to wear black. Black absorbs everything coming in from the sun, sure. But black also absorbs energy from the body instead of reflecting it back.

<h2>Spring constant is 14.72 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

We have for a spring

Force = Spring constant x Elongation

F = kx

Here force is weight of mass

F = W = mg = 0.54 x 9.81 = 5.3 N

Elongation, x = 36 cm = 0.36 m

Substituting

F = kx

5.3 = k x 0.36

k = 14.72 N/m

Spring constant is 14.72 N/m
