Hello There

Answers: The elastic potential energy can be increased by: 

1) Getting a spring with a higher spring constant

2) Increasing the length at which the spring is compressed.

Reasons: Getting a stronger spring makes it stronger which equals more energy. While increasing the compression on the spring, increases the stored energy which makes it more powerful when its released

I hope this helps

Getting a stiffer spring (one with a higher spring constant) and increasing the length at which the spring is compressed. 
Hope this helps.

At what height is an object that weighs 490 newtons if its gravitational potential energy is 4900 J?

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The height at which the object is moved is 10 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the object, W = F = 490 N

The gravitational potential energy, P = 4900 J

We need to find the height at which the object is moved. We know that the gravitational potential energy is possessed due to its position. It is given by :

$P=mgh\\\\h=\dfrac{P}{mg}\\\\h=\dfrac{4900\ J}{490\ N}\\\\h=10\ m$
