Solve the following problems:

Problem 1: Take a spring and cut it in half. What can you say about the spring constant of the smaller springs relative to the original one? Explain.

Problem 2: Suppose you're hanging from a tree branch. If you move out the branch, farther away from the trunk, the branch will be more likely to break. Explain why.

Problem 3: Could a ladder on a level floor lean against a wall in static equilibrium if there were no friction forces? Explain.

Please keep answer short and simple and please no copy and paste. Thanks.
