Problem

The equilibrium length of a certain spring with a force constant of k = 250 N/m is 0.18 m....

The equilibrium length of a certain spring with a force constant of k = 250 N/m is 0.18 m. (a) What is the magnitude of the force that is required to hold this spring at twice its equilibrium length? (b) Is the magnitude of the force required to keep the spring compressed to half its equilibrium length greater than, less than, or equal to the force found in part (a)? Explain.
