Statement:

A force is necessary to stretch a spring 0.5 m when the spring constant is 190 N/m.

To find out:

The force required to stretch the spring.

Solution:

  • Spring constant (k) = 190 N/m.
  • Displacement (x) = 0.5 m
  • Let the force necessary to stretch the spring be F.
  • We know the formula of spring force, i.e., F = kx.
  • Putting the values in the above formula, we get
  • F = 190 N/m × 0.5 m
  • or, F = 95 N
  • So, the force required to stretch the spring is 95 N.

Answer:

95 N
