If a spring is stretched 4m from its starting length when 20n of force is applied, then how much work (in joules) is done by the

lys-0071 [83]

ANSWER:

250 J

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

F = 20N is required to stretch the spring by 4 meters

We know that the force is equal to:

$F=k\cdot x$

We solve for k (spring constant):

$k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{20}{4}=5\text{ N/m}$

The work done in stretching the spring is given by the following equation (in this case the stretch is 10 meters:

$\begin{gathered} W=\frac{1}{2}k\cdot x^2 \\ \text{ Replacing} \\ W=\frac{1}{2}\cdot5\cdot10^2 \\ W=250\text{ J} \end{gathered}$

The work required is 250 joules.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

$v_i=189.315ft/s$

Explanation:

We are going to use the accelerated motion formula $v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad$ on the vertical component taking the upwards direction as positive.

Since <em>at maximum height the speed will be $v_f=0m/s$ </em>, the formula can be written as $v_i=\sqrt{-2ad}$ , which for our values is:

$v_i=\sqrt{-2(-32ft/s^2)(560ft)}=189.314553059ft/s=189.315ft/s$

Written to three decimal places.
