Question

a metal spring having two ends M and N are placed on a table.

what will happen if you simultaneously pull both ends of the spring with the same force?

Answer 1

Answer:

When we apply force F on spring balance on one end, it gives reaction of same force F at another end and it reads force as F. Now, generally another end is fixed to a support.

So, in practice, there are always two forces present at both ends, which is of same magnitude.

So,

in this case, both forces are 1.5N on both ends reads 1.5N
