When you hang the block from it, the spring stretches a distance d1=20 cm. What is the spring constant?(b) Now that you know the spring constant, you set up the situation in figure C, where the spring is horizonal and stretched a distance d2=10 cm, one rope is vertical, and the other rope is at an angle θ=25.2 .
