Question
A spring is stretched vertically by 0.50 meters when a 15 kg mass is hung from the spring and the spring is not
moving (it is just hanging in equilibrium).
If you now hung a 147 N weight on the spring and the spring is not moving (it is just hanging in equilibrium),
how far would it stretch?
7.50 m
O 0.50 m
O 1.00 m
O 9.80 m
