Hooke’s LawAny spring has a natural length at which it exerts
no net force on the mass m . This length, or position, is called the equilibrium
position and is labeled x0.
If the mass is moved away from this position, in either the left or right direction, the spring will exert a force on the mass that will act in the direction of returning it to the equilibrium position. This force is called the restoring force.
The magnitude of the restoring force is directly proportional to the distance that the spring has been stretched or compressed away from x0. Thus the equation for the restoring force can be written as:
m
m
Spring ExampleA 5kg object is hung from a spring and stretches the spring 15cm from it’s equilibrium position. What is the spring constant (stiffness of the spring)?
How far would a 7kg object stretch the spring?

StretchingRigid objects like steel rods behave a lot like springs- Stretch them a just a little and after you release them, they’ll return to their original shape-If they’re very stiff, so you don’t notice much of a stretch-If you stretch them a lot, part or all of the stretch can become permanent, with potentially catastrophic results
View of MatterMatter can be viewed as a series of atoms connected by springs.The stiffer the springs the more tightly the atoms are held together in the material.
The material can be stretched
…as long as we don’t break the springs
The material can be compressed
…as long as we don’t smash the springs
In both cases the material returns to its original shape
Young’s Modulus
The “stress” applied to a material is the Force/Area.
How much the material responds to that stress is called the “strain” DL/L.
The two are related by Young’s Modulus Y.
Y
[Y] = N/m2 = Pascal

ExampleA car is suspended from the ceiling by a steel rod 1 cm in diameter and 2 m long. If the car has a mass of 1200kg, by how much does the steel rod stretch?

Block on the wallAn 8 N horizontal force F pushes a block weighing 12.0 N against a vertical wall . The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the block is 0.69, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.49. Assume that the block is not moving initially.

Since the weight is larger than the static friction force then the block is sliding down the wall (kinetic).
