The law applied here is Hooke's Law which describes the force exerted by the spring with a given distance. The equation for this is F = kΔx, where F is the force in Newtons, k is the spring constant in N/m while Δx is the displacement in meters.
If you want to find work done by a spring, this can be solved by using differential equations. However, derived equations are already ready for use. The equation is
W = k[{x₂-x₁)² - (x₁-xn)²],
where
xn is the natural length
x₁ is the stretched length
x₂ is also the stretched length when stretched even further than x₁
In this case xn =x₁. So, that means that (x₁-xn) = 0 and (x₂-x₁) = 11 cm or 0.11 m.
Then, substituting the values,
2 J = k (0.11² -0²)
k = 165.29 N/m
Finally, we use the value of k to the Hooke's Law to determine the Force.
F = kΔx = (165.29 N/m)(0.11 m)
F = 18.18 Newtons
Answer: A. force with which air rushes across the vocal folds
Explanation:
The human voice is produced in the larynx, whose essential part is the glottis. This is how the air coming from the lungs is forced during expiration through the glottis, making its two pairs of vocal folds to vibrate.
It should be noted that this process can be consciously controlled by the person who speaks (or sings), since the variation in the intensity of the sound of the voice depends on the strength of the breath.
