Margaret [11]

Answer: 2352 J

Explanation:

A body's<u> gravitational potential energy</u> U depends on its position and is mathematically expressed as follows:

U=mgh

Where:

m=60 kg is the mass of the skater

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

h=4 m is the skater's current height

Solving:

U=(60 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})(4 m)

U=2352 J

If a 8.0 kg mass is hung on the end of a spring, it is stretched 0.78 meters as a result. What is the force constant of the spri
Alborosie

Answer:

K=100.62N/m

Explanation:

Given:

             m= 8.0 Kg\\x=0.78 m

We know from Hook's law

           F= k x

where

           F= m g

So equating we get

             mg=kx\\k=\frac{mg}{x} \\k=\frac{8*9.8}{0.78}\\k=100.62 N/m
