Answer:
F = 8840.7 N
Explanation:
The parameters given are:
Length L = 3 metres
Extension e = 3 × 3 = 9m
Force constant K = 982.3 Newton per metre
From Hook's law,
Provided the elastic limit is not extended, the extension is directly proportional to the force applied.
That is,
F = Ke
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
F = 982.3 × 9
F = 8840.7 N
