A cylindrically shaped piece of collagen (a substance found in the body in connective tissue) is being stretched by a force that increases from 0 to 3.0 × 10-² N. **89. The length and radius of the collagen are, respectively, 2.5 and 0.091 cm, and Young's modulus is 3.1 × 10° N/m². (a) If the stretching obeys Hooke's law, what is the spring constant k for collagen? (b) How much work is done by the variable force that stretches the collagen? (See Section 6.9 for a discussion of the work done by a variable force.)
