A certain spring stretches 6 cm when a load of 15 N is suspended from it How much will the spring stretch if 30 N is suspended from it and it doesn't reach its elastic limit?

It will stretch 6 cm.


A spring that stretches 5.0 cm when a load of 11 N is suspended from it how much will the spring stretch if an identical spring supports the load?

since the springs share the load the stretch displacement is load divided by the sum of the spring constants. If the springs are identical the stretch is one half of the stretch with only the one spring, or 2.5 cm


Why does the suspended spring stretch more at the top than at the bottom?

There is more force applied to the top of the spring than the bottom, because the whole spring is hanging from the top, but only a small part is hanging from near the bottom. The larger force stretches the spring more.


When a 2-N weight is hung from a spring the spring stretches 0.04 m How much does the spring stretch when a 6-N weight is hung from it?

The answer is ni99er because add me on xbox. El Kemosabe F you if you need the answer lol


A weight if 2.5 N stretches a spring balance bye 0.1 m Calculate the extension of the spring if a weight of 7.5 N is suspended from the spring balance?

If a 2.5N extends the spring for 0.1m, so a 7.5N will extend 3 times that, a 0.3m.


Which forces are acting when you stretch a spring?

The force you are exerting to stretch it, and the restoring force of the spring.


Why is a spring a good force measurer for a newton meter?

Because over a certain limited range, a carefully manufactured and very expensive spring will stretch exactly in proportion to the magnitude of the force that's causing it to stretch, and the magnitude of the force can be accurately determined simply by observing and measuring the length of the stretch.


What is the spring constant of a spring?

The ratio of force applied to how much the spring streches (or compresses). In the SI, the spring constant would be expressed in Newtons/meter. A larger spring constant means the spring is "stiffer" - more force is required to stretch it a certain amount.

Suggest suitable Experiments to find spring constant of a helical spring?

Connect a mass to the bottom of the spring. (depending on the spring size, the mass will vary, the larger the spring the greater the mass u can use) Suppose you use a 100 g mass on a spring, measure the amount by which it stretches and record the data. Use hooke law to figure out the constant of the spring. K = m.g/x m = mass, g =gravity, x = stretch

What does the stretch of a spring scale measures?

When you pull on the scale you stretch the spring the pointer on the scales moves as you pull to measure the force you are using you have to be able to lift or pull on the spring scale
