Which is a correct description of Hooke's law? -The force applied to a spring equals the product of the spring constant and the displacement.
-The force applied to a spring equals the spring constant divided by the displacement.
-The spring constant of a spring equals the product of the force applied and the displacement.
-the spring constant of a spring equals the displacement divided by the force applied.

The force applied to a spring equals the product of the spring constant and the displacement.

Explanation:

From Hooke's law, the force required to extend or compress a spring by a distance is proportional to the distance. This means extension is proportional to force.

Mathematically it is stated as;

F= -k*x  where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement of the spring after adjustment.

Hooke's law is an example of elasticity property of a material which is the ability of the object to return to a normal shape after experiencing a distortion also called "restoring force"

  1.the balanced   chemical equation is as below

cu +   2 ag(no)₃ → cu(no₃)₂   +2 ag

2.the   much silver   produced   is   50.9 g

step 1: find the   moles of cu

moles =   mass÷   molar mass

  from periodic table the molar mass of cu = 63.5 g/mol

moles is therefore = 15.00 g÷ 63.5 g/mol = 0.236   moles

step 2: use the mole ratio to determine the   moles of ag

from equation above   cu: ag   is 1: 2

therefore the moles of ag   =0.236   moles   x 2/1 =0.472   moles

step 3: find the mass   of ag

mass = moles x molar mass

from periodic table   the molar mass of ag =107.87 g/mol

mass   = 0.472   moles x 107.87 g/mol = 50.9 g

3.   the   much   silver   collected worth is   1.797 oz

  convert   50.9 g   to oz

that is   1 gram = 0.0353 oz

          50.9 grams =?   oz

by cross multiplication

={(50.9 grams x 0.0353 oz) / 1   gram}   =1.797 oz
