Answer:

-2.63 Joules

2.63 Joules

Explanation:

x_i = Initial compression = 5.89 cm

x_f = Final compression = -15.4 cm

k = Spring constant = 260 Nm

Work done by a spring is given by

W=\frac{1}{2}k(x_i^2-x_f^2)\\\Rightarrow W=\frac{1}{2}260\times (0.0589^2-0.154^2)\\\Rightarrow W=-2.63\ J

Work done by the spring is -2.63 Joules.

Change in kinetic energy is given by

\Delta K=W_a+W_s

Here, it is assumed that change in kinetic energy is zero as velocity and amlitude are not mentioned.

So,

0=W_a+W_s\\\Rightarrow W_a=-W_s\\\Rightarrow W_a=--2.63\\\Rightarrow W_a=2.63\ J

The work done by the applied force is 2.63 Joules.

A jetliner, traveling northward, is landing with a speed of 71.9 m/s. Once the jet touches down, it has 675 m of runway in which
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

The value is  a =  -3.7 \  m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  landing speed is  u =  71.9 \  m/s

   The  distance traveled is  d =  675 \  m

    The velocity it is reduced to is  v  =  11.3 \  m/s

   

Generally the average acceleration is mathematically represented as

      a =  \frac{ v^2  -  u^2 }{ 2 * d }

=>  a =  \frac{ 11.3^2 - 71.9^2 }{ 2 * 675 }

=>   a =  -3.7 \  m/s^2
