Answer:
64 J
Explanation:
The potential energy change of the spring ∆U = -W where W = work done by force, F.
Now W = ∫F.dx
So, ∆U = - ∫F.dx = - ∫Fdxcos180 (since the spring force and extension are in opposite directions)
∆U = - ∫-Fdx
= ∫F.dx
Since F = 40x - 6x² and x moves from x = 0 to x = 2 m, we integrate thus, ∆U = ∫₀²F.dx
= ∫₀²(40x - 6x²).dx
= ∫₀²(40xdx - 6x²dx)
= ∫₀²(40x²/2 - 6x³/3)
= ∫₀²(20x² - 2x³)
= [20x² - 2x³]₀²
= [(20(2)² - 2(2)³) - (20(0)² - 2(0)³)
= [(20(4) - 2(8)) - (0 - 0))
= [80 - 16 - 0]
= 64 J
The most likely element is silver
in second place is copper
Answer:
he string has POTENTIAL ELASTIC energy
Explanation:
he catapult is a very good example of energy transformations.
Initially when the string is taut it has an elastic potential energy, when releasing the lever it is transformed into cinetic energy in the ball until it shoots out.
Consequently the string has POTENTIAL ELASTIC energy
