- 3The data shown in Table 2 was collected by hanging weights (F) on a metal wire and measuring the extension (x) caused. The wire was originally 2.00 m long and…[1 mark]
- 3(a)Plot a graph of the weight, F, against the extension, x, on the graph grid opposite.[4 marks]
- 3(b)By estimating the area under the graph, find the work done in stretching the wire by 4.0 mm.[2 marks]
