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>

How could the action force of a canoe moving through water be increased?.
BaLLatris [955]
There are several actions that can be used to increase the action force of a canoe that is moving through water. One can increase the rate of striking or strike harder than before with a bigger paddle. Using a lighter canoe can also be helpful for increasing the speed. I hope the answer comes to your help.

Vladimir79 [104]

E)  Biotechnology use can lead to an increase in soil erosion and pollution runoff through decreased pesticide use.

Explanation:

Biotechnology use cannot lead to an increase in soil erosion and pollution runoff through decreased pesticide use.

There is no relationship between biotechnology use and increase soil erosion and pollution run off.

Biotechnology involves the application of technology based on living things.
