Find the total distance the pair of springs is extended

Reference no: EM13534340

A weightless spring with spring constant k1 hangs from an elevated support. From its lower end hangs a second weightless spring with spring constant k2. An object of mass M hangs from the bottom of the second spring.

(a) Find the effective spring constant of the pair of springs as a system.

(b) Find the total distance the pair of springs is extended. (any pictures to help describe the solutions would be appreciated)
