A rubber band has a spring constant of 15 N/m. If you stretch it by 0.3 m,
what is the magnitude of the force that resists the stretching?
O
A. 6.2 N
B. 4.5N
O C. 5.0 N
O D. 3.0N

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. 4.5N

Explanation:

F = kx

Where

F = force

K = spring constant

x = compression

Given

K = 15N/m

x = 0.3m

Therefore

F = 15 x 0.3

F = 4.5N

The magnitude of the force that resists the stretching is 4.5N
