Question

A toy dart gun has a spring with k= 128 N/m. How much force does it take to pull the spring back 0.0500 m? (Unit = N)​

Answer 1

6.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Acellus Proof

Answer 2

F = 0.64 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Spring constant constant; k = 1.28 N/m

Distance; x = 0.5 m

From Hooke's law, we know that F = kx.

Thus;

F = 1.28 × 0.5

F = 0.64 N

Thus, force it takes to pull the spring back = 0.64 N
