Asked by elizabeth
A single mass (m1 = 3.1 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 338 N/m.
What is the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length?
If I were to use the equation f=-kx what would that look like? or is that not the right equation to use

M*g = 3.1 * 9.8 = 30.38 N. = Wt. of the mass.
1m/338N * 30.38N. = 0.08988 m. = 9.0 cm.
1m/338N * 30.38N. = 0.08988 m. = 9.0 cm.
