Chapter 9, Problem 12CQ
12. The left end of a spring is attached to a wall. When Bob pulls on the right end with a 200 N Force, he stretches the spring by 20 cm. The same spring is then used for a tug-of-war between Bob and Carlos. Each pulls on his end of the spring with a 200 N force. How far does the spring stretch? Explain.
