Textbook Question
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.

A typical mattress has a network of springs that provide support. If you sit on a mattress, the springs compress. A heavier person compresses the springs more than a lighter person. Use the properties of springs and spring forces to explain why.
*10. Go Review Conceptual Example 2 as an
aid in solving this problem. An object is at-
tached to the lower end of a 100-coil spring
that is hanging from the ceiling. The spring
stretches by 0.160 m. The spring is then cut
into two identical springs of 50 coils each. As
the drawing shows, each spring is attached
between the ceiling and the object. By how
much does each spring stretch?

- 13. Three students have a discussion about a lab activity they completed in class regarding hanging a mass from a spring. Student A: "If I want the spring to stretch twice as far I would use a spring with twice the spring constant, since I will get twice the force for the same mass.' Student B: "If I want the spring to stretch twice as far I would use a spring with half the spring constant. That spring would need to stretch twice as far to be in equilibrium with the weight of the mass." Student C: "If I want the spring to stretch twice as far, I have to double the weight hanging from it. Changing the spring constant has no effect on how much the spring stretches." a) With which student, if any, do you agree? b) Carefully explain your reasoning.arrow_forward2.

- 4. Explain how an astronaut in an orbiting satellite can use a spring with a known force constant to measure his mass. Normally he could hang motionless from the spring to stretch it and, thus, determine his weight mg from the force constant and the amount of stretch. By dividing his weight by g, he could determine his mass. This method will not work, however, since his apparent weight is zero.arrow_forwardSF-1 A coil spring has an unloaded total length of 25.0cm.
