A student uses two springs for the experiment. The force constant of the thin spring (k,) is 0.01 N/m, and the force constant of the thick spring (k2) is 0.25 N/m. These springs are connected in series. How much force is needed to pull the springs to get a 25 cm extension?

To measure the spring constant of a certain spring, a student put a mass of 700 g at the bottom of the spring, and the spring stretches by 35.0 cm. What is the spring constant?
Two springs, each with a spring constant 20 N m²1, are connected in series. Draw a diagram of the two springs connected in series and determine the total extension if a mass, with weight 2.0 N, is hung on the combined springs.
A certain pendulum is suspended from a force sensor which was tared before attaching the pendulum. the pendulum bob's mass is 100.0 grams, the string is 120.0 cm long, and the bob moves at a speed of 1.25 m/s at the bottom of its motion. What will the force sensor's reading be when the pendulum is at the bottom of its motion, in N? Answer with a magnitude, so it should be positive.
A force of 5 lbs is required to hold a spring stretched 0.3 ft beyond its natural length. How much work (in foot-pounds) is done in stretching the spring from its natural length to 1 ft beyond its natural length? ft·lb
A spring of force constant 285.0 N/mN/m and unstretched length 0.220 mm is stretched by two forces, pulling in opposite directions at opposite ends of the spring, that increase to 19.0 NN. How long will the spring now be? Express your answer in meters. How much work was required to stretch it that distance? Express your answer in joules.
Spring scales are often used in markets for weighing produce and simply consist of a spring connection to a gauge that displays how far the spring has stretched and correlates that to the weight of the produce. (a) What is the spring constant (k) for the spring in the scale if the spring stretches .96 cm for .5 kg of potatoes? Number N/m (b) What is the mass of a collection of potatoes if the spring stretches 2.8 cm? Number kg (c) How many cm apart are the quarter-kilogram marks on the scale? (Note: depending on your random values, this may be a much larger distance then you would expect) Number cm
