Physics. Hooke’s law states that the relationship between the stretch s of a spring and the weight w causing the stretch is linear. For a particular spring, a 5-pound weight causes a stretch of 2 inches, while with no weight, the stretch of the spring is 0.

(A) Find a linear equation that expresses s in terms of w.

(B) What is the stretch for a weight of 20 pounds?

(C) What weight will cause a stretch of 3.6 inches?
