F = k x

k = 2 g/6.1 cm

2.5g = (2g/6.1cm) x

x = 6.1 (2.5/2) cm

The ideal spring equation is

                               Stretch  =  K  times  Force  .

This says that the stretch is directly proportional to the force.
In simple English, that means that if you double the force, then
you double the stretch, and if you multiply the force by  π  or
any other number, you multiply the stretch by the same number.

So you can always write a proportion for a spring:

                 Stretch₁ / Force₁  =  Stretch₂ / Force₂ .

In this question, the force is increased to  (2.2 / 2.0) =  1.1 times .

So the stretch is also increased to  1.1 times .

                 (1.1) x (5.2 cm)  =<span>  5.72 cm  .</span>

The energy that generates wind comes from what source?
Rudiy27

Answer:

we can say that wind energy is due to

D) Severe thunderstorms

Explanation:

As we know that wind energy is converted into kinetic energy of wind mills

This kinetic energy of wind mill is then converted into electrical energy using turbine

now we can consider here  energy conservation theory that energy is only converted from one form to other form

it neither be destroyed nor be created but it can transfer from one form to other form

So here we can say that wind energy is due to

D) Severe thunderstorms
