False, Carbon usually forms four covalent bonds.
So what we can do is apply the<span> Hooke's law wich states that
F = -kx ( P.S the -ve sign means opposite in direction )
Also we will need to determine the spring's constant with the formula:
k = F / x
Where F = the force ( = 20 N )
x = the displacement of the end of the spring from it's position ( = 0.20 m )
k = the spring's constant ( = unknown )
So this would be: k = 20 / 0.20 = 100 N/m
The period of oscillation of 4 kg : T = 2 * pi * square root m / k
T = 2 * pi * square root 4 / 100
T = 1.256 seconds

To solve the two parts of this problem, we will begin by considering the expressions given for gravitational potential energy and finally kinetic energy (to find velocity). From the potential energy we will obtain its derivative that is equivalent to the Force of gravitational attraction. We will start considering that all the points on the ring are same distance:

Then the potential energy is

PART A) The force is excepted to be along x-axis.
Therefore we take a derivative of U with respect to x.



This expression is the resultant magnitude of the Force F.
PART B) The magnitude of loss in potential energy as the particle falls to the center

According to conservation of energy,
