How do you find F and the k constant in the spring formula?
Q. I need to test a spring. I know that F=kx, but in my case both F and k are unknown. If I hang a 100g, 200g, or 500g mass on the bottom of a spring how can I calculate the force acting on the spring and find k?
Asked by Vandana S - Tue Jan 8 18:27:20 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. x is the displacement, you can measure this for no mass (natural spring length=x0) and after hanging 100, 200, and 500 gram. calculate x using distance-x0 (meters) convert mass to force using F = mg After this graph F versus x. Hopefull this will be a line going through 0. gradient = delta_F/delta_x which is what you want

How can I improve my 5-K time? I'm about to be a softmore in high school and need to get faster?
Q. I need to improve my 5-K time for cross country. I now have a 3 mile time of 19:40. How much is the right amount to run over the summer? How can I shred my time?
Asked by Gil W - Sat Jun 21 13:56:08 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. There is no right amount to how much you should run over the summer you should push yourself to the limits but don't go so hard that you injure yourself. You should be doing a mixed day schedule running 5-6 days a week. One day do a short fast run like a 2-3 mile run. The next day do a really long slow run of about 6-7 miles. Then the third day should be a mix of both at about 4-5 miles. You shouldn't run all 7 days because your body needs to rest. Also work on your ab strength because I have found that it is really helpful. All these distances can be adjusted to what you feel comfortable with but, good luck and keep running.

A. E=Z^2*E0*(1/nf -1/ni) here nf =infinity so 1/nf=0 , ni=1 the energy is positive E0 =13.6eVso 13.6*1.6*10^-19J=2.178*10 ^-18J as z=29Z^2=841 and E=2.178*10^-19*841=1.83*1 0^-15J
