Question

hooke's law the distance d when a spring is stretched by a hanging abject varies directly as the object.if the distance is 49 cm .when the weight is the distance

Answer 1

Is there any more information on this?
Generally speaking, there is a relationship between the amount of distance displaced on a springscale and the weight of an object (which depends on mass and local gravity)

Answer 2

no there is not any more information, i dont even understand the hooke;s law

Answer 3

Hooke's Law says that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the weight applied to it.
That said, I'm not entirely sure what they are asking for in this question.

Answer 4

its what is the distance when the weight is 7kg? sorry i thought i had it all type in sorry

Answer 5

I'm still not sure what the question is asking. The part of importance seems to say:
"If the distance is 49 cm when the weight is 7kg the distance"
There isn't really a question there.

Answer 6

oh hold on ill retype it

Answer 7

hooke's law. the distance d when spring d stretched by a hanging object varies directly as the weight w of the object if the distance is 49cm when the weight is the distance when the weight is 7kg. the distance is ???????

Answer 8

"if the distance is 49cm when the weight is the distance when the weight is 7kg. the distance is"

From this much information It sounds like 49cm. That is unless they give you a weight that is associated with 49cm that you didnt type in. (this is a very oddly worded question)
