Answer:

3.95 m

Explanation:

m = 1 kg, h = 100 m, k = 125 N/m

Let the spring is compressed by y.

Use the conservation of energy

potential energy of the mass is equal to the energy stored in the spring

m x g x h = 1/2 x ky^2

1 x 9.8 x 100 = 0.5 x 125 x y^2

y^2 = 15.68

y = 3.95 m

Answer:

The Heavier Firefighter

Explanation:

Generally, more massive objects will have more intertia than less massive objects.  As such it takes more force to halt a more massive object if its moving at the same speed as a smaller object. This can also be thought of in the context of Newton's second law. The more force needed to accelerate an object means the more force the object will have.

What should stainless steel be considered when using it?
disa [49]
Strength, ductility, and toughness are the three top mechanical qualities that should be given importance. Stainless steel comes with 10–30% chromium as its alloying element. It is this element that helps it resist corrosion.
