Spring #1 has spring constant 61.0 n/m. spring #2 has an unknown spring constant, but when connected in series with spring #1, the connected springs have an effective spring constant of 20.0 n/m. what is the spring constant for spring #2?

29.79 N/m

Explanation:

A spring connected in series behaves like a capacitor connected in series.

Note: Spring and capacitor are alike because they both store energy, While the former store mechanical energy, the later store electrical energy.

From the above, the effective spring connected in series is given by the formula below

1/Kt = 1/K1 + 1/K2 Equation 1

Where Kt = effective spring constant, K1 = spring constant of spring 1, K2 = spring constant of spring 2

Making K2 the subject of the equation,

K2 = KtK1/(K1-Kt) Equation 2

Given: K1 = 61 N/m, Kt = 20 N/m.

Substitute into equation 2

K2 = (61×20)/(61-20)

K2 = 1220/41

K2 = 29.76 N/m.

Hence the spring constant in the second spring = 29.79 N/m

i dont think you are wrong for wanting to get even with someone who did you wrong.

(i'm an eye for an eye kind of person) but if this person hurt you in a sexual way, i dont suggest doing anything to him. he should be taken to the proper authorities, you could go to jail depending on what you do. if it was something small like your sibling took your spot on the couch, than yea, i would get even with him by taking one of his favorite snacks lol. but i dont suggest you doing anything illegal.

the first american roller coaster was the mauch chunk switchback railway, built in the mountains of pennsylvania in the mid-1800s. the track, originally built to send coal to a railway, was reconfigured as a "scenic tour."
