Answer: 1175 J
Explanation:
Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."
Given
Spring constant, k = 102 N/m
Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m
from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m
Work done =
W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]
Since x(f) = 0, then
W = 1/2 k x(i)²
W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²
W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04
W = 1/2 * 2350.08
W = 1175.04
W = 1175 J
Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon
The equator is warmer than the poles because the equator is closer to the sun. In other words, the sun is overhead the equator, which is a result of the Earth's curvature.

Because different materials have different molecular organizations.
