Question

If the restoring force constant of a body is 98N/m. Then for a displacement of 5cm find its restoring force.

Answer 1

Answer:

4.9N

Explanation:

F=Kx

=98N/m×0.05m

=4.9N

Answer 2

The restoring force is 4.9 N

Given,

The restoring force constant of the body is (k) = 98 N/m

The displacement of the body is (x) = 5 cm

                                                           = 0.05 m

We know,

The restoring force (F) = kx

∴ F = 98 × 0.05 N

⇒ F = 4.9 N

The amount of force that is stored in the spring, that only acts as the restoring force of the body.

So, the restoring force will be 4.9 N.
