Question

If a box weighing 520 N is hung from a spring whose constant is 650 N/m, how many centimeters will the spring stretch?

Answer 1

u first oh wait nevermind I just answered the wrong question

Answer 2

Answer: The spring stretched by 80 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force exerted bu the box = 520N

Spring constant = k= 650 N/m

Meter by which spring stretched = x meters

Spring constant formula:

`Force=k* distance=k* x`

`x=(520 N)/(650 N/m)=0.8 m=80 cm (1 m=100 cm)`

The spring is stretched by 80 cm.
