does the size and the diameter of a spring affect how much it will extend when I add a certain mass to it?
Ex:
Giving that the weight applied is the same
A thick spring will extend more that a thinner one? Or a longer spring will extend more that a short one?
how much it will extend when I add a certain mass to it depends on spring constant of the spring (k).
and Spring constant is inversely proportional to length and extension in spring is also inversely proportional to spring constant. which means extension in spring is directly proportional to the length of spring.
Longer the spring more will it extend.
In dealing with a coil spring the spring constant will depend on the stiffness of the spring material, the thickness of the wire from which the spring is wound and, diameter of the turns of the coil, the number of turns per unit length and the overall length of the spring.
So, Thick spring will extend less than thinner spring.

The mass of the spring will depend on the density of the material, the thickness of the wire from which the spring is wound, the diameter of the turns of the coil, the number of turns per meter of spring length and the overall length of the spring.
Since the mass and the spring constant have some factors in common, they will in general not be independent of each other, but the spring constant may not vary in any simple way with the mass of a spring.
More exactly, the spring constant will probably change for springs of different mass, made out of the same material. If the change in mass is due only to a longer spring, the spring constant will decrease. Long springs tend to be softer than short ones. If the change in mass is due only to thicker wire, the spring constant will increase. Springs made of fat material are stiffer than those made of thin material. If the change in mass is due to some combination of changed wire and changed length, we may not be able to say. It might even be possible to construct two springs of different mass with the same spring constant.

I would like your feedback on my experiment. I am Investigating how different springs extend when I add different weights to it. I want to check if the methodology of my experiment is good. Could you give me a feedback? Methodology: I have 3 springs of the same material but with different diameters/lenghts and 5 different weigths. 1. I will measure the initial length of the spring using a ruler, I will hang the weight under the spring. When the...

1. How is the amount a spring is stretched/compressed related to the force applied to it? 2. How is the amount a spring is stretched/compressed related to the force the spring exerts on the object stretching it? 3. If you connect more than one spring in a chain, how will this affect the spring constant of the combined longer spring?
A 1.0 kg weight is suspended from a spring, stretching it by 5.0cm. How much does the spring stretch if the 1.0 kg weight is now replaced by a 3.0 kg weight?
When talking about cell size, how does cell size affect the diffusion of materials into the cell? I have a table down below and I am attempting to discuss the results and could use some help. Thanks! Agar cubes of the below dimensions were placed in a bromothymol blue solution, acetic acid, and sodium bicarbonate. What do the results of the experiment say in relation to cell size? Block Dimensions Surface Area (cm2) Volume (cm3) Time Required for Complete Color...
How much does a 0.40m long copper rod with a 6.7mm diameter stretch when one end is fixed and the other is pulled with a 1.1kN force?
How much does a 0.36 m long copper rod with a 7.7 mm diameter stretch when one end is fixed and the other is pulled with a 1.5 kN force
A spring is characterized by a spring constant of 60 N/m. How much potential energy does it store, when stretched by 1.0 cm?
How does Shrinkflation affect a cost reconciliation report? When the sizes or weights of the actual products changes between different periods, can this change be accounted for when reconciling costs? How would this be accounted for when the units are no longer "equivalent"?
Consider a spring that does not obey Hooke's law very faithfully. One end of the spring is fixed. To keep the spring stretched or compressed an amount x, a force along the x-axis with x-component Fx=kx−bx2+cx3 must be applied to the free end. Here k=100N/m, b=700N/m2, and c=12000N/m3. Note that x>0 when the spring is stretched and x<0 when it is compressed. A)How much work must be done to stretch this spring by 0.050 m from its unstretched length? B)How...
