the shock absorbers in a car act as a big spring with k= 21900 N/m. when a 92.5 kg person gets in, how far does the spring stretch?

0.04139m

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the weight of the man which will be:

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

Weight = mg

Weight = 92.5 × 9.8

Weight = 906.5N

Then, we calculate the force which will be:

F = kx

mg = kx

x = mg/k

x = 906.5/21900

x = 0.04139m.

The spring stretched for 0.04139m.

no. bullets are macro objects. wave nature is for light waves, extremely tiny particles. if a light particle was the size of your finger, the bullet would be the size of the universe. so basically, that huge difference in size makes the wave nature of matter insignificant.
