The spring of the child’s pistol is compressed by 3 cm. Determine the elastic force if the spring rate is 700 N / m.

Given:

dx = 3 centimeters = 0.03 meters – the amount of compression of the spring of the child’s pistol;

k = 700 N / m – coefficient of spring stiffness.

It is required to determine the elastic force Fel (Newton).

Fcont = k * dx = 700 * 0.03 = 21 Newtons.

Answer: the elastic force acting on the compressed springs of a child’s pistol is 21 Newtons.
