A vertical spring 0.100 meter long is stretched to a length of 1.25 meters when a 2 kilogram mass is attached to the bottom. What is the correct value for the spring constant of this spring?
1. A heavy crate (m = 23 kg) is resting on a frictionless inclined plane while suspended from a wall by a spring. The plane is inclined at an angle of 30° from the horizontal, and the spring is stretched from its equilibrium position by 25 cm. What is the spring constant of the spring? If the frictionless inclined plane is now replaced with an otherwise identical plane except with a rough surface, the crate now stretches the spring by 12 cm from its equilibrium position. What is the coefficient of static friction? You can assume that the static friction is at its maximum value. 30°
