Question

According to the graph, what is the constant of proportionality in kilograms per inch? (Note: This is also called the spring constant. The spring constant is determined by the spring’s material and design.)

Answer 1

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is the number of kilograms that will stretch the spring by 1 inch. When y = 1 x=1/3. so the constant of proportionality in kilograms per inch is 1/3.
