Lab 9.2 - Hooke's law

\fNow set the "Spring Constant 1" to the smallest possible and the "Spring Constant 2" to the largest possible . Then for each spring, measure the stretch X when you hang 50g, 100g and 150g. Then go to the desmos online calculator G; and create 2 tables (click the + icon and select table). Use the stretch (X) and masses (M) you measured for each spring to ll the x (X) and y (Mass) columns of your tables respectively. When your are done entering your data click on the Share Graph icon (top right, to the left of the question mark), copy the share link and paste it here. HINT: Ifyou can't nd the 150g mass, measure the mass of the blue object again (repeat Q3). Edit View Insert Format Tools Table 12ptV ParagraphV B I U A V 4? V T2v Notice that if you connect the dots (for each spring) that you created by entering your data, they trace a straight line, that is because the springs are satisfying Hooke's Law: F = kX,or M g = k: X, where g = 10 m/s2 (Force = Weight fo the masses = m g) =>M=X, and since k/g is a constant this is an equation of a straight line, the equation of the lines in your chart. Using the above nd the value of k for each of the springs by solving for k and using your data. M9 k=X Question 5 3 pts What is the value of k1, the "Spring Constant 1" when set to the smallest? Give your answer in units of [N/cm] = [Kg m/s2 / cm] Question 6 3 pts What is the value of k2, the "Spring Constant 2" when set to the highest? Give your answer in units of [N/cm] = [Kg m/s2 / cm]
