EPE= 0.5 * spring constant * (extension)^2

Spring constant=EPE/0.5*extension^2

5J/0.5*0.5^2

=40N/m

Energy stored in a spring = (1/2) (spring constant) (stretch)²

 5 Joules = (1/2) (spring constant) (0.5 m)²

10 Joules = (spring constant) (0.25 m²)

Spring constant = 10 joules / 0.25 m²

Spring constant = 40 Newton/meter

Please explain how to solve 17 and 18
andriy [413]

Answer:

17. h = l − l cos θ

18. 1.40 m

Explanation:

Let's call d the height of the triangle.  We can then say:

h = l − d

Using trig, we can write d in terms of l and θ:

d = l cos θ

h = l − l cos θ

If l = 6 m and l cos θ = 40°:

h = 6 − 6 cos 40

h ≈ 1.40

Which of these properties change if the size of an object changes?
german
The correct answer is 
<span>Density 

In fact, the density of an object is the ratio between its mass m and its volume V:
</span>d= \frac{m}{V}
<span>if the size of the object changes, its volume V changes as well, therefore the density d must change.</span>
