What is the equation in Hooke’s law
The equation in Hooke’s law is F=kx
What is extenison proportional to?
Extension is proportional to the force applied
HOW DO YOU WORK OUT EXTENSION?
FINAL LENGTH-ORIGINAL LENGTH
What is the spring constant k equal to?
Spring constant k is equal to the gradient of the graph
How do you calculate the gradient in a graph?
To calculate the gradient, you do rise(N)/run(M) = N/M
How can you increase pressure?
you can increase pressure by increasing the number of particles, increasing the temperature and reducing the size of a container
What is upthrust?
upthrust is the upward force exerted by a liquid on an object. The greater the surface area of a floating object the greater the upthrust.
How do you calculate moment
Moment = Force (N) x Perpendicular distance (m)
