Hooke’s Law Worksheet #1
1. A rubber band is stretched from its resting position a distance of 0.1 m. If the spring constant is k = 2.5 N/m, what is the force being exerted on the rubber band?
2. If a spring is stretched a distance of 0.25 m with a force of 20 N, what is the value of the spring constant k?
3. If the spring constant k of a pogo stick is 3500 N/m and the weight of the person on the pogo stick is 700 N, how much is the spring in the bottom of the pogo stick compressed?
4. A 20 kg cart on wheels has been pushed up against a wall with a spring (k = 244 N/m) between the wall and the cart. If the spring is compressed a distance of 0.1m and a force of 20 N is continued to be applied toward the wall, what will the acceleration of the object be?
5. A spring (k = 2.3 N/m) is attached to an object of mass = 10 kg. If the object is hung from the ceiling by this spring, how much would the spring be stretched?
