The given problem can be exemplified in the following diagram:
Since there is no friction or any other external force, the only force acting in the direction of the movement is the component of the weight of the block, therefore, applying Newton's second law:
Replacing the values:
We may cancel out the mass:
Using the gravity constant as 9.8 meters per square second:
Solving the operations:
Therefore, the acceleration is 6.3 meters per square second.
Answer:
Elastic potential energy, E = 200 J
Explanation:
It is given that,
Spring constant, K = 4 N/m
initial stretching in the spring, x = 5 m
Finally, it is stretched an additional 5 m i.e. x' = 5 m
Let E is the elastic energy in the spring after Varg stretches the spring. it is given by :
E = 200 J
So, the elastic energy in the spring after Varg stretches the spring is 200 J. hence, this is the required solution.
