Answer :
1.68 Newton is the magnitude of the the spring force now exerts on your hand.
Stiffness of spring Length of spring when it relaxed= 14cm
when we compressed the spring its length become =8cm
So Compressed length (x) = 0.08 m
magnitude of the force, the spring exerts on your hand is
[tex][| vec|F|=k|x|],[ vecF=24N/m*0.08m][/tex]
F=1.92 newton
Each end of a spring is pushed apart when it is compressed by a force whose size is proportional to the length deviation from the equilibrium length.A force pushing either end toward the other when a spring is extended has a magnitude proportional to the length increase from the equilibrium length
The force a spring applies to items fastened to its ends is proportional to the distance the spring travels from its equilibrium length and is always pointed in the direction of equilibrium.
