Hookes law states that the first F in a spring extended by a length X is given by f = - kx according to Newton second law of motion f= ma calculate the dimensions of the spring constant k
Hookes law states that the first F in a spring extended by a length X is given by f= - kx according to Newton second law of motion f= ma calculate the dimensions of the spring constant k
since F is the same,
kx = ma
so in units,
k*m = kg * m/s^2
k = kg/s^2
