Types of Forces III (Elastic Force and Tension) Revision Questions

1. An object is hooked on a spring of constant 4000 N/m. As a result, the spring extends by 8cm. What is the mass of the object? (For simplicity, take the gravitational field strength equal to 10 N/kg).

  1. 320 kg
  2. 32 kg
  3. 5 kg
  4. 500 kg

Correct Answer: B

2. An object is pulled horizontally due right by using a rope while it is hooked at a spring on the left as shown in the figure.

The spring has a constant of 10000 N/m and it is tied to a fixed vertical wall. If the friction between the object and the ground is negligible, calculate the tension in the rope if the spring extends by 4 cm due to the action of the pulling force.

  1. 40 N
  2. 25 N
  3. 400 N
  4. 250 N

Correct Answer: C

3. The elastic force vs deformation graph of a spring is shown in the figure below.

  1. 80 N
  2. 1280 N
  3. 2140 N
  4. 560 N

Correct Answer: D
