In a supermarket, you place a 22.3-n (around 5 lb) bag of oranges on a scale, and the scale starts to oscillate at 2.7 hz. what is the force constant (spring constant) of the spring of the scale?

Force constant, k = 653.3 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the bag of oranges on a scale, W = 22.3 N

Let m is the mass of the bag of oranges,

m = 2.27 kg

Frequency of the oscillation of the scale, f = 2.7 Hz

We need to find the force constant (spring constant) of the spring of the scale. We know that the formula of the frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by :

k = 653.3 N/m

So, the force constant of the spring of the scale is 653.3 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer is ampere

the ampere is used to measure electricity. an ampere is a unit of electric current equal. a unit of measure for the flow of current in a circuit. one ampere is the amount of current flow provided when one volt of electrical pressure is applied against one ohm of resistance.
