Lukakosir:
First u need to to get how much force does jumper have
Lukakosir:
U get need multiplay his weight by 9,81
Lukakosir:
U will get 1108,53 N
Lukakosir:
Then u devide 1108,53 N by 18N/m
Mercury:
It would be wise to set up the formulas so the asker knows why the operations are being performed Since the velocity is 0, the spring force and the force of gravity are equal and opposite in direction Therefore, F = kx (the spring force) and F = mg (the force of gravity) are equal set kx = mg and solve for x (the displacement)
