If the speed of sliding along the table is constant, then there's no acceleration, and
the 'net' force on the mass and anywhere along the connection to the scale is zero.
At the point where the hook of the scale engages the mass, there is no acceleration.
The mass is pulling the hook backwards with a force of 20 newtons, and somebody's
finger is pulling the spring scale forward with a force of 20 newtons.
The mass or weight of the object sliding along on the table is irrelevant.
The force exerted by the mass on the spring scale is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the force measured by the spring scale. Therefore, the force exerted by the mass on the spring scale is 20 newtons.
20 newtons
Yes, when the mass is in its equilibrium position, the force due to the spring (spring force) is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force due to gravity acting on the mass. This balance of forces keeps the mass stationary at the equilibrium point.
A spring scale is typically used to measure the force of push or pull exerted on an object. The stretch or compression of the spring in the scale can be used to determine the magnitude of the force acting on the object.
The 'N' on a spring scale typically stands for Newtons, which is a unit of force. It is used to measure the force applied to an object by indicating the weight in Newtons.
A spring scale measures the force exerted on an object. When an object is hung from the scale, the scale's spring stretches or compresses, and the amount of deformation is used to determine the force exerted by the object.
The force exerted is called restoring force, which is produced by the spring's elastic properties. This force acts in the opposite direction to the displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position, returning it to its original shape.
It is 20 N.
A spring scale measures the force exerted on an object due to gravity. It does this by stretching a spring based on the weight of the object, which can then be read as a measure of the force in units such as pounds or newtons.
Elastic Spring Force
The spring constant is calculated by dividing the weight of the object (29 N) by the distance it stretches the spring (11 cm). First, convert 11 cm to meters by dividing by 100 (0.11 m), then divide the weight by the stretch distance to get the spring constant: 29 N / 0.11 m = 263.6 N/m.
The force of 10 newtons is a unit of measurement for force in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the amount of force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.
Yes, when the mass is in its equilibrium position, the force due to the spring (spring force) is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force due to gravity acting on the mass. This balance of forces keeps the mass stationary at the equilibrium point.

Newtons
The unit used on spring scales is 'Newtons.'
A spring scale measures the force exerted on an object. When an object is hung from the scale, the scale's spring stretches or compresses, and the amount of deformation is used to determine the force exerted by the object.
Spring scales can measure grams, newtons, or pounds.
