i believe the answer is 1.5e+6
hope this helps!
Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2
Step by step:
Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.
Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.
The total energy at the point h=2m is:

The total energy at the point h=0m is:

The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:

Answer: For ideal machine efficiency = 1. Hence M.A = V. R. The V. R of an ideal machine and the practical machine is a constant or is the same for both
Planetary Nebula are the outer layers of a star that are lost when the star changes from a red giant to a white dwarf. A star is a luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light by nuclear reactions (nuclear fusion). They are born from nebulae and consist mostly of hydrogen and helium gas.
