A) A 1-kg mass stretches a spring 5 cm. How far does the spring stretch when it supports 3-kg? b) Recall that weight is a force and according to Newton's 2nd Law W= mg. Use g = 9.8 m/s^2 to determine the weight of the 1 kg mass.
c) Use your determined weight for the F in the formula (weight is a Force) and Use Hooke's Law F = -kx, rearrange the terms to solve for the spring constant k in units of (N/cm).

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
