For a 2 kg mass to hang motionless from a partially stretched spring with a spring constant, a force of 8.608 N would need to be applied in order to pull the mass down an additional 7 cm.
A scalar is used to indicate a force's magnitude, which is the amount to which the body it is acting on will be accelerated by the force (a single number). The force's strength can also be considered in terms of its magnitude. When forces are shown as vectors, the force's magnitude is typically explicitly labeled.
m=2 kg and spring constant,=177 N/m
The extension should be x.
F = spring constant, x x = mg / K = 2 x 9.8 / 177 = 0.1107 m at this time, d = 7 cm = 0.07 m
F represents additional force.
(mg + F) = K (x + d), where (2 x 9.8 + F) = 177(0.110 + 0.07)
19.6 + F = 31.86\sF = 12.26 N
