The extension of this spring from its original length is equal to 1.2 meter.

Given the following data:

  • Weight = 12 Newton
  • Spring constant = 10 N/m

To calculate the extension of this spring from its original length:

How to solve for extension.

Mathematically, the force acting on a spring is given by the formula:

[tex]F=ke[/tex]

Where:

  • K is the spring constant.
  • e is the extension.

Making e the subject of formula, we have:

[tex]e=\frac{F}{k} [/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]e=\frac{12}{10} [/tex]

Extension, e = 1.2 meter.
