The force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

<h3>Force constant of the spring</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy,

K.E = U

where;

K.E kinetic energy of the elevator
U is elastic potential energy of the spring

¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²

mv² = kx²

k = mv²/x²

Where;

m is mass of the elevator
v is speed
x is compression of the spring

k = (2000 x 8²)/(3²)

k = 14,222.2 N/m

Thus, the force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

It is correct to say that impulse is equal toA) momentum.B) the change in momentum.C) the force multiplied by the distance the f

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

B) the change in momentum

Explanation:

Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted on an object (F) and the contact time ( $\Delta t$ )

$I=F \Delta t$

Using Newton's second law (F = ma), we can rewrite the force as product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):

$I=(ma) \Delta t$

However, the acceleration is the ratio between the change in velocity ( $\Delta v$ ) and the contact time ( $\Delta t$ ): $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$ , so the previous equation becomes

$I=m \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\Delta t$

And by simplifying $\Delta t$ ,

$I=m \Delta v$

which corresponds to the change in momentum of the object.
