Answer:

1411.8 N/m

Explanation:

From Hooke's law;

F= Ke

Where

F= force on the spring

K= force constant

e = extension

But e= 8.50 × 10^-2m

F= weight = 12.0 kg × 10 = 120 N

K = F/e = 120/8.50 × 10^-2

K= 1411.8 N/m

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

p =  \frac{fd}{t}  \\ where \: \\p  = power \\  f = force \\ d = distance \\ and \: t = time \\  \\ p =  \frac{3800 \times 50}{10}  \\ p =  \frac{190000}{10}  \\ p = 19000w
