Question

A 10.0 N package of whole wheat flour is suddenly placed on the pan of a scale such as you find in grocery stores. The pan is supported from below by a vertical spring of force constant 395 N/m. If the pan has negligible weight, find the maximum distance the spring will be compressed if no energy is dissipated by friction.

    Answer:

    0.025 m

    Explanation:

    From the question,

    Applying Hook’s law

    F = ke………………. Equation 1

    Where F = Force, k = spring constant of the scale, e = maximum distance at which the spring will compress.

    make e the subject of the equation

    e = F/k………………….. Equation 2

    Given: F = 10 N, e = 395 N/m

    Substitute these values into equation 2

    e = 10/395

    e = 0.025 m
