<u>Answer:</u>
2N/cm
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
According to the Hooke's Law, the force required to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional distance you can stretch it, which is represented as:
where, is the force which is stretching or compressing the spring,
is the spring constant; and
is the distance the spring is stretched.
Substituting the given values to find the elastic constant to get:
Therefore, the elastic constant is 2 Newton/cm.
The answer is no. If you are dealing with a conservative force and the object begins and ends at the same potential then the work is zero, regardless of the distance travelled. This can be shown using the work-energy theorem which states that the work done by a force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object.
W=KEf−KEi
An example of this would be a mass moving on a frictionless curved track under the force of gravity.
The work done by the force of gravity in moving the objects in both case A and B is the same (=0, since the object begins and ends with zero velocity) but the object travels a much greater distance in case B, even though the force is constant in both cases.
