In 1-2 sentences explain how you would determine the constant k for a spring.
1 answer:
To perform an experiment to determine the force constant of a spring, you will need a stand with a boss and clamp, a spiral spring, a meter rule and different weights.
The setup is arranged as shown in the image attached. The natural length of the spring is first recorded. Different weights are added to the spring one after the other and the extension is recorded.
The weight is now plotted on the vertical axis and the extension is plotted on the horizontal axis. The slope of the graph is the force constant of the spring.

Answer:
1.
109.6 cm , - 1.74 , real
2.
1.5
Explanation:
1.
d₀ = object distance = 63 cm
f = focal length of the lens = 40 cm
d = image distance = ?
using the lens equation
d = 109.6 cm
magnification is given as
m = - 1.74
The image is real
2
d₀ = object distance = a
d = image distance = - (a + 5)
f = focal length of lens = 30 cm
using the lens equation
a = 10
magnification is given as
m = 1.5
