A force of 4.3 N compresses a spring that has a spring constant of 71 N/m. What is the compression distance?

x = 6.05 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the spring, F = 4.3 N

The spring constant of the spring, k = 71 N/m

We need to find the compression distance. The force acting on the spring is given by :

Where

x is the compression distance

So,

or

x = 6.05 cm

So, the compression distance is 6.05 cm.

the independent variable, the one that is intentionally manipulated, is whether or not the car hits the barrier.

the dependent variable, the one that you measure the response in, is the distance that the washers travel.

find the surface area of the sphere to the nearest square unit. use a calculator.

a. 254 in.2

b. 64 in.2

c. 127 in.2

d. 1,018 in.2
