The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is
(1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²
E = 1/2 k x² .
You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write
1700 joules = 1/2 k (3m)²
1 joule = 1 newton-meter
1700 N-m = 1/2 k (3m)²
Multiply each side by 2: 3400 N-m = k · 9m²
Divide each side by 9m² k = 3400 N-m / 9m²
= (377 and 7/9) newton per meter
Answer:
We live in a very adaptable environment. If we cannot adapt to the environment, we will not be able to survive.
Explanation:
According to newton's third law of motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts force to push it into a piece of wood, the nail <span>C. exerts an equal or opposite force on the hammer. The third law of motion states that every action has an equal BUT opposite reaction. This means that the nail exerts the same force the hammer exerts on it.</span>
Because they are. it’s just how life works
