Record this value of length Lin Table 1.1 for L = .OON. 1] (b) On Fig. 1.1, show how a set-square could be used to take readings in order to determine the length 1, of the coiled part of the spring. i (c) The student places a 0.20N load on the spring. He records the new length lof the spring in Table 1.1 He repeats the procedure using loads of 0.40N, 0.60, 0.80N and 1.00N. All the readings are recorded in Table 1.1. (i) Calculate the extension e of the spring for each value of load L, using the equation = (I~ |,).
