How much force is required to stretch a spring 12 cm, if the spring constant is 55 N/m?

Physics
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

F = -kΔx

Since the spring constant is given in N/m, we need to convert the stretch to meters as well.

12 cm = .12 m

Now we can solve the problem:]

F = -55(-.12) so

F = 6.6N

Using parallax, what is the distance to the<br> farthest stars you can measure?
aev [14]
Parallax angles of less than 0.01 arcsec are very difficult to measure from Earth because of the effects of the Earth's atmosphere. This limits Earth based telescopes to measuring the distances to stars about 1/0.01 or 100 parsecs away.
