What is the relationship between potential energy and mass

Physics

Potential Energy can be quantified as mass times gravity times height (PE=m*g*h). The unit for mass should be either kilogram or pound mass depending on the unit system. Gravity is a constant, 9.81 m/s² in SI units or 32.2 ft/sec² in English units.

Why would an egg break immediately when it hits the ground?
Elza [17]

As an egg falls towards the floor, it begins to travel faster and faster. When it slams into the floor, the egg is stopped almost immediately. This force of the floor against the eggshell is too large, so it breaks.

The work done to compress a spring with a force constant of 290.0 N/m a total of 12.3 mm is: a) 3.57 J b) 1.78 J c) 0.0219 J d)
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Work done, W = 0.0219 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Force constant of the spring, k = 290 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 12.3 mm = 0.0123 m

We need to find the work done to compress a spring. The work done in this way is given by :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 290\times (0.0123)^2

W = 0.0219 J

So, the work done by the spring is 0.0219 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
