They are usually not considered to behave the same I physics problems. Strings are usually thought of inextensable, simply conveying a tensile force to whatever it is attached to. And strings can not sustain compressive forces. Springs are usually considered to stretch or compress under tension or compression, respectively.

A mill door at work weighs 1 Ton, There is a spring mounted in the door that is supposed to be set at 15 Ton compressed spring tension. I was wondering if it mattered if the weight of the door (once its laid down then it is pressing on the stud, hence compressing the spring a little) adds the 1 Ton...
Block A has a mass of 6.07 kg and is on a rough incline of 12.5o to the horizontal. Block B has a mass of 4.82 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between Block A and the plane is 0.268. What is the acceleration of the blocks? What is the tension in the string? Could someone please...
Two Objects of masses of 1 kg and 5 kg are connected together by a light string that passes over a frictionless pulley. What is the tension in the string? What is the acceleration of the block? When I calculated this I found that the tension in the string was 0 N and that the acceleration was...
A 2.09 kg block is placed on top of a 10.9 kg block. A horizontal force of F = 63.3 N is applied to the 10.9 kg block, and the 2.09 kg block is tied to the wall. The coefficient of kinetic friction between all moving surfaces is 0.117. There is friction both between the masses and between the...
