### Understanding Springs and Forces

#### Spring Compression

- **Scenario**: A relaxed spring protrudes from an opening by 0.0500 meters.
- **Figures Explained**:
  - **Figure A**: Shows a spring extending out of the opening by 0.0500 meters.
  - **Figure B**: Displays the same spring now compressed completely inside the opening with a 1.00 kg block resting on top of it.

#### Problem-Solving Questions

4. **Determine the Spring Constant \( k \):**

   Options:
   - A) 20.0 N/m
   - B) 196 N/m
   - C) 392 N/m
   - D) 3920 N/m
   - E) 7840 N/m

5. **Calculate the Potential Energy Stored in the Spring in Figure B:**

   Options:
   - A) 0.245 J
   - B) 0.490 J
   - C) 4.90 J
   - D) 9.80 J
   - E) Zero J

#### Pressure Application

6. **Determine the Force Exerted by a Child Pumping a Bicycle Tire:**

   - **Given**: The tire pressure must be \(1.2 \times 10^5 \, \text{Pa}\) above atmospheric pressure.
   - **Pump Specifications**: Circular piston surface area of \(9.6 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^2\).

   Options:
   - A) 120 N
   - B) 89 N
   - C) 76 N
   - D) 54 N
   - E) 240 N

This exercise helps to understand the principles of physics related to spring forces and pressure applications.
