What is the weight of an object with a 13kg mass?
Nishant K.
Two masses are attached to a spring scale. If both masses are 1kg, which force in newton's would the scale read?
Madhur L.
When an object of mass $5 \mathrm{~kg}$ is suspended from a spring, the spring is observed to stretch by $8 \mathrm{~cm}$. The deflection of the spring is related linearly to the weight of the suspended mass. What is the proportionality constant, in newtons per $\mathrm{cm}$, if $g=9.81 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} ?$
