Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 0.5

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hooke's law is a law of physics that states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, Fs=kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring, and x is small compared to the total…
