You are tasked with calibrating the springs for a pinball machine. Your method of testing the springs is by attaching masses ont

o the end of the springs and measuring the stretch from initial position to final position. You hang a 14kg mass on a spring and notice that it stretches from 50 to 78cm. What is the spring constant for that spring

Answer:

490.5\ \text{N/m}

Explanation:

m = Mass attached to spring = 14 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

x = Displacement of spring = 78-50=28\ \text{cm}

k = Spring constant

The force balance of the system is given by

kx=mg\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{14\times 9.81}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow k=490.5\ \text{N/m}

The spring constant for that spring is 490.5\ \text{N/m}.

PLEASE HELPPPP ❗️❗️❗️
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 main forces at work here, gravity, normal and friction. The gravity pulls the car straight down and is what keeps the car on the ground. Normal force is straight up from the points where the car is touching, so since the wheels are the only parts of the car touching the street, this is where all the normal force is. Friction force opposes any and all motion, the car wants to slide down the hill and would slide down the hill if there was no friction, so the friction force is in the opposite direction of the cars intended motion.
