The mathematical relationship between force and extension for a spring is F = -kx , where F is the restoring force, k is the spring constant and x is the extension. If a box that weighs 40 N is hung from a spring of content 400 N/m, then the extension is equal to x = -F / k = -400 / 40 = -10 cm. The negative sign simply shows the extension and restoring force are in opposite directions. The answer is 10 cm.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

at the highest point of the path the acceleration of ball is same as acceleration due to gravity

Explanation:

At the highest point of the path of the ball the speed of the ball becomes zero as the acceleration due to gravity will decelerate the motion of ball due to which the speed of ball will keep on decreasing and finally it comes to rest

So here we will say that at the highest point of the path the speed of the ball comes to zero

now by the force diagram we can say that net force on the ball due to gravity is given by

F_g = mg

now the acceleration of ball is given as

a = \frac{F_g}{m}

a = \frac{mg}{m} = g

so at the highest point of the path the acceleration of ball is same as acceleration due to gravity
