Given information
Given a spring of natural length, 20 cm. Also, a 25-N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 30 cm.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The spring has a natural length, 20 cm.
Hooke’s Law states that the force required to maintain a spring stretched units beyond its natural length is proportional to :
Also, it is given that a 25-N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 30 cm.
Here,
