I'm not sure if a figure or some choices go along with this, but the closer to the sea floor the diver is, the lower the potential energy
They are positive and remain inside the nucleus.
Answer:
C) 40 N/m
Explanation:
If we ASSUME that the spring is un-stretched at the zero cm position
k = F/Δx = 10/0.25 = 40 N/m
From the law of Galileo Galilei :v²=v₀²+2ad we take the speed
v²=0+2*4.90*200=1960=>v=√1960=44.27 m/s
