Forces are vectors. They cancel each other when in opposite directions. Use the equation F=GMm/r^2 and find the difference between the two forces since they are directly opposing each other.
They stay in place and vibrate.
<h2>When a mass on a spring that has been compressed 0.1 m has a restoring force of 20 N , then the value of spring constant (k) :- </h2><h2>200 N/m</h2>
Explanation:
Spring Constant :
According to Hooke's law, The force required to compress or extends spring is directly proportional to the distance it is compressed or stretched.
Given
x = -0.1 m
F = 20 N
F - -kx
k = -f/x
= -20 / -0.1 = 200 N/m
The value of spring constant is 200 N/m.
