Fig. 1.1 shows a steel spring.

(a)

Describe an experimental procedure for obtaining the results needed to plot an extension–load graph for this spring.

3M
(b)

In an experiment to obtain results for an extension–load graph, a spring is stretched beyond its limit of proportionality.

(i)

On Fig. 1.2, sketch the extension–load graph for this spring.

2M
(ii)

On your graph in Fig. 1.2, mark and label with a P the limit of proportionality.

1M
(c)

The limit of proportionality for this spring occurs at a load of 8.5 N8.5\text{ N}.

The extension of the spring is equal to 0.014 m0.014\text{ m} when the load is equal to 3.5 N3.5\text{ N}.

Calculate the extension for a load of 5.5 N5.5\text{ N}.

extension = ______
