Answer:
The amount of work done required to stretch spring by additional 4 cm is 64 J.
Explanation:
The energy used for stretching spring is given by the relation :
.......(1)
Here k is spring constant and x is the displacement of spring from its equilibrium position.
For stretch spring by 2.0 cm or 0.02 m, we need 8.0 J of energy. Hence, substitute the suitable values in equation (1).
k = 4 x 10⁴ N/m
Energy needed to stretch a spring by 6.0 cm can be determine by the equation (1).
Substitute 0.06 m for x and 4 x 10⁴ N/m for k in equation (1).
E = 72 J
But we already have 8.0 J. So, the extra energy needed to stretch spring by additional 4 cm is :
E = ( 72 - 8 ) J = 64 J
If the spaceship's Physicist happens to be hanging out of one side
of the ship, and he measures the speed of the photons as they pass
him and leave the ship, he'll see them passing him at 'c' ... the speed
of light.
When those photons pass somebody who happens to be in their
path, and he decides to measure their speed, he'll see them move
past him at 'c' ... the speed of light.
It doesn't matter whether the observer who measures them is
moving, or at what speed.
And it doesn't matter what source the photons come from, or
whether the source is moving, or at what speed.
And it doesn't matter what the photons' wavelength/frequency is ...
anything from radio to gamma rays.
The photons pass everybody at 'c' ... the speed of light.
Yes, I hear you. That can't be true. It's crazy.
Maybe it's crazy, but it's true.
Momentum (in terms of classical mechanics) is defined as p = m*v, where m is the mass and v is the velocity.
