We hope you don’t recoil when listening to Episode 14. It begins with discussing the common spring scale (1:08) before diving into Hook’s law (1:40). Don’t forget that you can use springs vertically and horizontally (4:12). Springs can do work on other objects, or they can possess elastic potential energy if they are defined as part of the system. You can look at springs through a graphical or algebraic lens, and still get the same answer! (5:12)
The Question of the Day asks: (6:22)
Question: If a given spring is deformed by twice as much, then how much more work can it do on an object?
a) half as much
b) twice as much
c) four times as much
