Fs = kx k=spring constant
x = displacement (stretch) of the spring
1. The staples in a stapler are pulled into position by a spring with a spring
constant of 100 N/m. When you close the stapler, the spring stretches 0.15 m
long. How much spring force does it exert on the staples?

Please help me

Talia is manufacturing rolls of wire for hanging pictures. she needs a material that is so that it can easily be pulled into wire without breaking.

(a) if the pressure in gas is doubled while its volume is held constant, by what factor do (i) vrms and (ii) change? (b) is it possible to boil water at room temperature (20oc) without heating it? explain.

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. there are several thousand masses large enough to detect by radar orbiting the earth, but there are far greater numbers of very small masses such as flakes of paint. calculate the force exerted by a 0.110 mg chip of paint that strikes a space shuttle window at a relative speed of 5.00 ✕ 103 m/s and sticks, given the collision lasts 6.00 ✕ 10-8 s. such a collision chipped the window of the ill-fated challenger in june 1983, causing $50,000 of damage.
