You need to make a spring scale to measure the mass of objects hung from it. you want each 2.1 cm length along the scale to correspond to a mass difference of 0.10 kg. what should be the value of the spring constant?

k = 46.67 N/m

Explanation:

given,

mass, m = 0.10 Kg

Length, x = 2.1 cm = 0.021 m

spring constant, k = ?

we know,

spring force

F = k x

and also

F = m g

computing both the equation

k x = m g

k = 46.67 N/m

Spring constant for the spring is equal to k = 46.67 N/m
