What happens when you pull or push a spring?

mmm


Is there a difference in the spring force when the spring is compressed instead of stretched?

When a coil spring is compressed the spring compression tends to vary inversely with the length of the spring to the point where the spring cannot be compressed further without damage. In tension, the spring tension varies directly with the length but only so long as the elastic modulus is not reached. At that length, the spring becomes permanently deformed or "sprung". Depending on the representation of the drawing, the vector of the spring in compression will be opposite that of the same spring in tension. That is to say, if you push the spring to the left the force will be negative while a pull to the right will be positive so the spring in compression will push right (positive) and the spring in tension will pull left (negative).


What happens when a stretching or force is applied to the ends of a spring?

The larger the force pulling on a spring, the greater the length in the spring and the more energy that is stored in that spring. When looking at a spring there is a gradient that determines how much force much be used to sqeeze or stretch a spring a given amount. When a spring is stretched, the greater the force that is applied, the greater the change in length of the spring and the greater the amount of energy that is stored in the spring. A link is supplied to the Wikipedia article on the spring (device).


What happens to the length of a spring when you add a mass to it?

Usually it gets bigger, if you wanted to do an experement, you would- Measure the spring, put it in water, take it out then measure it again and it would be bigger!

If the length of the spring is halved what happens to the spring constant?

Nothing; it remains the same as before.

What happens to ocean tide when gravitational pull is at its strongest?

When gravitation pull is at its strongest, we have spring tides. The spring tide reaches far up the beach at high tide, and also goes far down the beach at low tide.

Length of spring 6mm what is the extension spring?

multiply the force with length.

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


What is the length of the spring when a weightof 10n hangs from it?

depends on the initial length of the spring, and how much force is required to stretch the spring


Why does spring happens?

spring happens when the earth's axis tilts slant-wise between the sun and well nothing, which make spring happens.
