| In an experiment, a student applied various
forces to a spring and measured the spring's corresponding elongation. The table
below shows his data. |
|
|
13. On the grid below,
plot the data points for force versus elongation. 14. Draw the best fit line
|
 |
| 15. Using your graph, calculate the spring constant of the spring. [Show all work, including the equation and substitution with units.] | |
