A team of students develop a model to describe why structural changes to genes affect proteins. The team provides two groups of
students with the same materials, but one group must make a bridge while the other group makes a building. Analyze the team's model and explain why it incorrectly models the impact of gene mutations on proteins.
The Gravitational spring energy(Us) is equal to 1/2kx^2. So we have x as .2 m and Us as 4 N. So 4 N = 1/2 * k * .2^2. So now we solve for K and get 200 N/m.
