Problem

Three ideal springs are tested: • Spring P: a

6.0\,\text{N}

force produces a

1.2\,\text{cm}

extension • Spring Q: an

8.0\,\text{N}

force produces a

1.6\,\text{cm}

extension • Spring R: a

10.0\,\text{N}

force produces a

2.5\,\text{cm}

extension Calculate the spring constant of each spring and rank them from greatest stiffness to least stiffness.
