The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is
(1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²
E = 1/2 k x² .
You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write
1700 joules = 1/2 k (3m)²
1 joule = 1 newton-meter
1700 N-m = 1/2 k (3m)²
Multiply each side by 2: 3400 N-m = k · 9m²
Divide each side by 9m² k = 3400 N-m / 9m²
= (377 and 7/9) newton per meter
Answer: Gravitational potential energy changes.
Explanation: This is because depending on the amount of mass in an object that’s the amount of gravity pulling you down to the center of the earth
Answer:
I think the acceleration is 12m/s
A joule is one Newton of force applied over a meter.
For every meter, the brakes put 240000N of force (N=Newtons).
For 40m, multiply the Newtons by 40.
240000N*40=9600000N
