Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of the friend, W = 600 N
When the friend sits on the metal frame it bends downward 4 cm, we can say that the compression in the it is 4 cm or 0.04 m
To find,
Spring constant for this chair or k
Solve :
The weight of an object is equal to the force exerted by the gravitational force, F = 600 N
According to Hooke's law, the force exerted by the spring is given by :
F = kx
k is the spring constant


k = 15000 N/m
Therefore, the spring constant of the spring is 15000 N/m.
Answer:

Explanation:
Mass of block=10 kg
Applied horizontal force =F=20 N
Friction force=f=10 N
We have to find the acceleration of block.
Net force=Applied horizontal force-friction force

Where F= Horizontal force
f=Friction force
m=Mass of object
a=Acceleration of object


Hence, the acceleration of the block=
PE = 0.5 × k × x²
PE potential Energy
k spring constant
x stretch/compression of the spring
