The force an ideal spring exerts on an object is given by Fx = -kx, where x measures the displacement of the object from its equ

ilibrium (x = 0) position. If k = 60 N/m, how much work is done by this force as the object moves from x = -0.20 m to x = 0?

6 0

Answer:

The work done by this force can be found via the following formula

W = \int{F(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^0_{-20} {(-kx)} \, dx = \frac{-kx^2}{2}\left \{ {{x=0} \atop {x=-20}} \right. = \frac{-60*(-20)^2}{2} \\W = -12000J

Explanation:

Alternatively, the work done by the object is equal to the elastic potantial energy done by the spring.

U = \frac{1}{2}kx_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}kx_1^2 =0 - \frac{1}{2}60(-20)^2 = -12000J

Janice has just measured the density of an object. Which value is possible? (Density: D = )
babunello [35]
It is 6 g/cm3 because density cannot be negative, and it is not speed in which the unit would be m/s.

Calculate the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 60 Hz and wavelength of 2.0 m/s
mote1985 [20]

Answer:We have , a relation in frequency f and wavelength  λ of a wave having the velocity v as ,

           v=fλ ,

given f=60Hz , λ=20m ,

therefore velocity of wave , v=60×20=1200m/s
