A set of three springs connected in series is shown below. A block is attached to the end. The block is now pulled a distance of 0.12 m from its mean position. Estimate the equivalent spring constant!

• 13.6 N/m

• 9.6 N/m

• 7.8 N/m

• 5.8 N/m

A block is attached to a set of four springs aligned vertically and connected in series. Determine the equvalent spring constant!

• 128 N/m

• 64 N/m

• 8 N/m

• 4 N/m

The block in the following diagram undergoes a displacement of 0.060 m from the mean position. What is the equivalent spring constant? (in N/m)

See the diagram of a set of three parallel springs attached to a block and determine the equivalent spring constant! (In N/m)

In the spring-block system below, what is the equivalent spring constant? (In N/m)

three springs are arrenged vertically shown. Spring P and Q are identical and have spring constant k. spring contsntan of R is 3k. What is equivalent spring constant?
