The maximum compression of the spring is 0.276 m
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we calculate the spring constant of the spring, by using Hooke's law:
where
F = 10 kN = 10,000 N is the force applied
x = 1.25 cm = 0.0125 m is the corresponding compression of the spring
k is the spring constant
Solving for k,
When the truck impacts with the spring, all the kinetic energy of the truck is converted into elastic potential energy of the spring, so we can write
(1)
where
m is the mass of the truck
v = 2 m/s is the initial speed of the truck
is the spring constant
x is the compression of the spring
The mass of the truck can be found from its weight:
So now we can re-arrange eq.(1) to find the compression, x:

5x+x=300
6x=300
x=50
5(50)=250 (Rose)
x=50(John)
Rose has 250 stickers and John has 50, therefore Rose has 200 more stickers than John.

For rounding off to nearest tens, we compare the last digit.
Answer:
Let x represents the week and y represents the seashells
As per the statement:
Dora has 10 seashells and plans to add 2 shells every week.
"2 shells every week" means 2x
⇒y = 10 + 2x
It is also given, Jerri has 4 seashells and plans to add 5 shells every week.
"5 shells every week" means 2x
⇒ y = 4 + 5x
The system of equation would be used:
y = 10 + 2x
y = 4 + 5x
Since, the girls have the same number of seashells
⇒
Subtract 4 from both sides we get;
Subtract 2x from both sides we get;
Divide by 3 both sides we have;
x = 2 weeks.
Therefore, the number of weeks would it be before the girls have the same number if seashells is, 2 weeks.
