a) Construct a graph of Weight versus Spring Displacement with Spring Displacement on the x-axis. Draw the line that best fits your data points. The slope of the graph is the spring constant for the spring used in the Spring Balance. B) Measure the spring constant from your graph. Be sure to include the units (newtons/ meter) C) Calculate the percent difference between weight and spring scale D) How does the measurement from the Spring Scale compare to the actual weight? Mass(kg) 0.025kg 0.075kg 0.125kg 0.175kg 0.225kg 0.275kg 0.325kg Weight (N) 0.25N 0.75N 1.25N 1.75N 2.25N 2.75N 3.25N Spring displacement (m) 0.005m 0.0015m 0.025m 0.035m 0.045m 0.055m 0.065m
