You need to make a spring scale to measure the mass of objects hung from it. you want each 2.3 cm length along the scale to correspond to a mass difference of 0.10 kg. what should be the value of the spring constant?

42.6 N/m

Explanation:

The spring constant can be found by using Hooke's law:

F = kx

where

F is the force applied

k is the spring constant

x is the stretching/compression of the spring

In this problem, the mass applied is

m = 0.10 kg

so the force applied is the weight of the mass:

The stretching of the spring is

x = 2.3 cm = 0.023 m

So the spring constant is

they should be similar or the same

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
