F = k x
k = 2 g/6.1 cm
2.5g = (2g/6.1cm) x
x = 6.1 (2.5/2) cm
A voltmeter is the instrument used to measure a potential difference between two points in an electric circuit
The name and strength of the force holding the block up is 50 N upward - Normal force.
The given parameters:
- <em>Mass of the block, m = 5 kg</em>
The weight of the block acting downwards due to gravity is calculated as follows;
W = mg
where;
- <em>g is acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²</em>
W = 5 x 10
W = 50 N <em>(</em><em>downwards</em><em>)</em>
Since the block is at rest, an a force equal to the weight of the block must be acting upwards. This force is known as normal reaction.
Fₙ = 50 N <em>(</em><em>upwards</em><em>)</em>
Thus, the name and strength of the force holding the block up is 50 N upward - Normal force.
