Hooke's law Flashcards
1
Q
What is the equation for Hooke’s law?
A
Force = K (spring constant) * extension
2
Q
A mass of 630g is hung on a spring. Using Force = gravity * mass, what is the force of the mass, acting on the spring?
A
0.63 * 10 = 6.3N
3
Q
What force would be needed to extend a spring with a spring constant k=5, 0.3m?
A
F = 0.3 * 5
= 1.5N
