Read each scenario and then answer the question. Scenario A: A 3 spring is compressed a distance of 1.0 m. Scenario B: A 6 sprin

g is compressed a distance of 0.8 m. Scenario C: A 9 spring is compressed a distance of 0.6 m. Scenario D: A 12 spring is compressed a distance of 0.4 m. Which scenario generates the most elastic potential energy?

Answer:

Scenario B

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by:

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where k is the spring constant and x is the compression/stretching of the string.

Let's apply this formula to calculate the elastic potential energy for each scenario:

- Scenario A: U=\frac{1}{2}(3)(1.0 m)^2=1.50 J

- Scenario B: U=\frac{1}{2}(6)(0.8 m)^2=1.92 J

- Scenario C: U=\frac{1}{2}(9)(0.6 m)^2=1.62 J

- Scenario D: U=\frac{1}{2}(12)(0.4 m)^2=0.96 J

So, scenario B is the one that generates the most elastic potential energy.

A echo occurs when sound does what?
klio [65]
Echoes occur when a reflected soundwave reaches the ear more than 0.1 seconds after the original sound wave was heard. ... There will be an echoinstead of a reverberation. Reflection of sound waves off of surfaces is also affected by the shape of the surface.
