5. A block is suspended from the ceiling by a long, thin strip of tungsten metal.The strip behaves as a spring. To produce a 0.25 m horizontal deflection ofthe block, a force of 6.5 N is required. Calculate the spring constant(k) forthe tungsten strip.6.5 N0.25 mA) 0.038 N/mB) 1.2 N/mC) 1.6 N/mD) 13 N/mE) 26 N/m 6. In the produce section of a supermarket, five pears are placed on a springscale. The placement of the pears stretches the spring and causes the dialto move from zero to a reading of 2.0 kg. If the spring constant is 450 N/m,what is the displacement of the spring due to the weight of the pears?kgA) 0.0044 mB) 0.0088 mC) 0.018 mD) 0.044 mE) 0.088 mActivateGo to Sett2.
