To study any physical phenomena, a physicist starts with a
simple model.
For a vibrating mechanical system, we consider the simplest
model in which an object disturbed from its equilibrium
position is acted upon by a restoring force that acts to return
the object back to its equilibrium position. The restoring force is
proportional to the displacement of the object from equilibrium
and acts in the opposite direction to the displacement. This
restoring force obeys Hooke’s Law.
The motion of the object acted on by this type of restoring force
is periodic and is called Simple Harmonic Motion.

DNA is a long-chain molecule that is normally tightly coiled. Amazingly it is
possible to grab the two ends of a DNA molecule and gently stretch it while
measuring the restoring force using optical tweezers. Knowing the restoring
force tells how various enzymes act to cut and then reseal coils in the DNA
structure.
Problem 1
A DNA molecule is anchored at one end, then a force of
1.55 nN pulls on the other end, causing the molecule to stretch by
5.2 nm. What is the spring constant of the DNA molecule ?
use the ISEE method

Solution 1
DNA molecule
Identify / Setup
F = 1.55 nN = 1.5510-9 N
k = ? N.m-1
Hooke’s Law
x = 5.2 nm = 5.210-9 m
F=kx
Execute
k = F / x = (1.5510-9 / 5.210-9 ) N.m-1
k = 0.30 N.m-1
Evaluate
OK

Problem 2
A nasal strip can improve the air flow through nasal passages.
The nasal strip consists of two flat polyester springs enclosed by
an adhesive tape covering. Measurements show that a nasal
strip can exert a force of 0.25 N on the nose, causing it to
expand by 3.7 mm. Calculate the effective force constant of the
nasal strip and the force required to expand the nose by 4.2 mm.
use the ISEE method

Solution 2
nasal strip
Identify / Setup
F = 0.25 N
x = 3.7 mm = 3.710-3 m
Hooke’s Law
F=kx
x = 4.2 mm = 4.210-3 m F = ? N
Execute
k = F / x = (0.25 / 3.710-3 ) N.m-1 = 68 N.m-1
F = k x = (68)(4.210-3) N = 0.28 N
Evaluate
OK
k = ? N.m-1

When a bowstring is pulled back in preparation for
shooting an arrow, the system behaves in a Hookean
fashion. Suppose the string is drawn 0.700 m and
held with a force of 450 N.
What is the elastic constant k of the bow?
use the ISEE method

Identify / Setup
F = 450 N
x = 0.700 m
Hooke’s Law

Execute
k = F / x = 450 / 0.7 N.m-1
k = 6.43102 N.m-1
Evaluate
OK
k = ? N.m-1

During the filming of a movie a 100.0 kg stuntman
steps off the roof of a building and free-falls. He is
attached to a safety line 50.0 m long that has an
elastic constant 1000 N.cm-1.
What is the maximum stretch of the line at the instant
he comes to rest, assuming Hooke’s Law is valid?
Hint: Consider how the various kinds of energy change
use the ISEE method
