Question

PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Answer 1

The answer is D displacement. This is because the potential energy is the possible energy that they spring can have. So the more it displaced or stretched or pressed, the more potential energy It will have

Answer 2

Answer:

The potential energy for a mass on a spring is proportional to the square of the displacement.

D is correct.

Explanation:

The Potential energy :

The potential energy is the stored energy within  the object due to the position of the object.

For spring,

The potential energy is the directly proportional to the square of displacement.

The potential energy in the string is defined as,

$P.E = \dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

Where, k = spring constant

x = distance

Hence, The potential energy for spring is proportional to the square of the displacement.
