1 mile. Is this a joke lol
Answer: the most potential energy == 5 kg book, 2 m from the ground= 98 Joules
Explanation:
potential energy = m g h
m = mass
g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²
h = distance above ground
1. Pe₁ = 1 kg x 2 m x g = 2 g
2. Pe₂ = 5 kg x 2 m x g = 10 g = 10 kg m x 9,8 m/s² = 98 Joules
3. Pe₃ = 1 kg x 0,5 m x g = 0,5 g
4. Pe₄ = 5 kg x 0.5 m x g = 2,5 g
10 > 2,5 > 2 >0,5
Answer:
Explanation:
Work done by the spring is negative .
Work done by force F creating displacement d is given by the following expression .
Work = F x d
Both force and displacement are vector quantity .
When direction of force and direction of displacement is same , work is positive . When direction of force and direction of displacement is opposite , work is negative .
When spring is compressed , it exerts a restoring or opposing force in a direction opposite to the direction of displacement of box . Hence here force is opposite to displacement . Restoring force acts opposite to displacement . Hence work done by spring on box is negative .
