In an experiment to determine the spring constant of an elastic cord of length 0.60 m, a student hangs the cord from a rod as represented above and then attaches a variety of weights to the cord. For each weight, the student allows the weight to hang in equilibrium and then measures the entire length of the cord. The data are recorded in the table in the image.

An ornament of mass 41.4 g is attached to a vertical ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 13.6 N/m. The ornament is then lowered very slowly until the spring stops stretching. How much does the spring stretch?
In each figure below, a system consisting of two blocks that are tied together is attached to a spring. The systems are all at rest, and all of the springs are stretched by the same amount. The blocks on the horizontal surface are all identical, but the masses of the blocks on the inclined surfaces and the spring constants of the springs vary as shown in the figures. There may be friction between the blocks and the surfaces.
