Applied force \(F\) versus elongation \(x\).
Applied force \(F\) versus elongation \(x\).
A student performs an experiment to determine the spring constant of an ideal spring. One end of the spring is attached to a rigid wall, and a force sensor pulls the other end horizontally with an external force of magnitude \(F\) to stretch the spring by an elongation \(x\). A graph of \(F\) as a function of \(x\) is shown. Based on the graph, what is the spring constant of the spring?
