You compress a spring by a distance of 0.2 m. The spring has a spring constant of 37 N/m. When you release the spring, it snaps
2 answers:
At that point it is no longer trying to uncompress nor is it trying to stretch. This is the same thing as a pendulum at the bottom of its swing, no longer falling but not yet rising against gravity. Thus the kinetic energy there is the same as the potential energy when it is compressed. The energy of compression is
This gives E=0.5(37)(0.2)²=0.74J
This is the same as the kinetic energy when it is at natural length
This gives E=0.5(37)(0.2)²=0.74J
This is the same as the kinetic energy when it is at natural length

"The equation can be used to calculate the power absorbed by any surface" statement concerning the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is correct.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Stefan Boltzmann equation, the power radiated by black body radiation source is directly proportionate to the fourth power of temperature of the source. So the radiation transferred is absorbed by another surface and that absorbed power will also be equal to the fourth power of the temperature. So the equation describes the relation of net radiation loss with the change in temperature from hotter temperature to cooler temperature surface.
So this law is application for calculating power absorbed by any surface.
