If a spring stretches 6 meters when a 7-kilogram weight is attached to it, how much will it stretch when a 42-kilogram weight is attached to it?

Respuesta :

folarin7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

 This is a simple proportion problems.

7 kilogram weight attache to a spring stretches  = 6 meters

 1 kilogram would stretch                                       =  6/7 m

Therefore 42 kilograms would  stretch                  = (6/7 x 42)meters

                                                                                 =  36 meters.
