Answer:

<h2>1567.09 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m=5kg

compression x= 3.13cm to m= 0.0313m

<em>According to Hooke's law, provided the elastic limit of an elastic material is not exceeded the extension e is directly proportional to the applied force</em>

F=ke

where

k= spring constant in N/m

e= extension/compression in

Step two:

assume g= 9.81m/s^2

F=mg

F=5*9.81

F=49.05N

substitute in the expression F=ke

49.05=k*0.0313

k=49.05/0.0313

k=1567.09 N/m

<u>The force constant (in N/m) of the spring is 1567.09 N/m</u>

Mass, volume and density are all properties of
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Properties of matter

Explanation:

All properties of matter are either extensive or intensive and either physical or chemical. Extensive properties, such as mass and volume, depend on the amount of matter that is being measured. Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of matter.
