in our graph of force Vs. Stretch of spring, the question asks if it is possible to extrapolate it to a force of 50N? how do i know if thats possible.... how do you calculate the maximum stretch that a spring can stretch??

Sure you can extrapolate. After you've plotted F (the force) and x (the stretch of the spring), you get a straight line. The slope of this line is the spring constant, k.

Hooke's law says that F = -kx. So now you have measured k, and you then calculate what is x (the stretch of the spring) if the force is 50 N, using x = F/k.

Physics Dude is correct, however one cannot stretch a string beyond its elastic limit. If the string does not spring back ones the load is removed you have just pushed it beyond its limit.

How come no participant ends there final call with X, i think of between the gamers ought to alter there final call to end in an X than they may well be the terrific X participant to presently be playing, and how in the international is Zednik greater advantageous than Zetterberg Richy all of us love u and all yet ya its Z, palms and palms down.
