Answer:

at the top

Explanation:

Potential energy is the stored energy, mechanical energy,

or energy possessed by by virtue of the position of an object.an example of potential energy is the energy that a ball possesses by virtue of its sitting at the top of the stairs it being about to roll down the stairs.

What does Newton's 2nd Law explain?
kow [346]

Answer:

C. Why you must push harder to move a car farther.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{mass}

Hence, Newton's 2nd Law explains why you must push harder to move a car farther because of its mass. Thus, it is important to increase the force that the engine provides and decrease the mass of the car.

Two identical light springs with spring constant k3 are now individually hung vertically from the ceiling and attached at each e
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

 Keq = 2k₃

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using Newton's second one

                F = m a

Where F is the eleatic force of the spring F = - k x

Since we have two springs, they are parallel or they are stretched the same distance by the object and the response force Fe is the same for the spring age due to having the same displacement

          F + F = m a

         k₃ x + k₃ x = m a

         a = 2k₃  x / m

To find the effective force constant, suppose we change this spring to what creates the cuddly displacement

       Keq = 2k₃
