This is the equation for elastic potential energy, where U is potential energy, x is the displacement of the end of the spring, and k is the spring constant.
<span> U = (1/2)kx^2
</span><span> U = (1/2)(5.3)(3.62-2.60)^2
</span> U = <span>

Answer:
1977.696 J
Explanation:
Given;
Weight of the box = 28.0 kg
Force applied by the boy = 230 N
angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°
Therefore,
the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ
= 230 × cos 35°
= 188.405 N
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24
Force by friction, f = μN
here,
N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity
or
N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N
therefore,
f = 0.24 × 274.68
or
f = 65.9232 N
Now,
work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement
= 188.405 N × 30
= 5652.15 J
and,
the
work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement
= - 65.9232 N × 30 m
= - 1977.696 J
[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]
