a spring has constant 250 Newton per meter. if it is stretched a distance of 0.1m, what is the reatoring force?what if it is stretched a distance of 5 m? why would this probably not really be possible?
At 0.1m, the restoring force would be 25 Newtons. It would probably not be possible to stretch to 5 meters because that would cause a restoring force of 1250 Newtons.
