You are tasked with calibrating the springs for a pinball machine. Your method of testing the springs is by attaching masses onto the end of the springs and measuring the stretch from initial position to final position. You hang a 14kg mass on a spring and notice that it stretches from 50 to 78cm. What is the spring constant for that spring

Explanation:

m = Mass attached to spring = 14 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity =

x = Displacement of spring =

k = Spring constant

The force balance of the system is given by

The spring constant for that spring is .

hi,

what occurs during a solar eclipse?

there are small tides across earth.

the moon is between earth and the sun.

p.s. im not sure if the first answer is correct because during a solar ecliphse there are spring tides and i dont know if they are the same.
