Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of ball Is m=96.1g=0.0961kg
Height above spring is 59.1cm
L=0.591m
Extension of the spring is 4.75403cm
e=0.0475403m
Then the distance the ball traveled is H=L+e
H=0.591+0.0475403
H=0.6385403m
Then, the potential energy of the ball is given as
P.E=mgh
P.E=0.0961×9.81×0.6385403
P.E=0.602J
From conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroy but can be transferred from one form to another
Then, the P.E is transferred to the work done by the spring
Then, Work done by spring is given as
W=½ke²
W=P.E=½×k×0.0475403²
0.602=½×k×0.0475403²
k=0.602×2/0.0475403²
k=532.72N/m
The spring constant is 532.72 N/m
Possible Solutions to the Problem of Global Energy Crisis:
1. Move Towards Renewable Resources.
2. Buy Energy-Efficient Products.
Looking back at the evolution of humans, we are most closely related to chimpanzees, credited to opposable thumbs
The 2 spots after the decimal still counts toward the total the figures
