Answer:

3.0 x10^-3 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of a spring is given by PE = (0.5)k*x^2  

Where

K: Spring Constant = 60 N/m

x: displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position = 1cm = 0.01m

Then PE = 0.5(60)(.01)^2 = 0.003J = 3.0 x10^-3 J

Answer:

<em> The potential Energy stored in the spring = 0.003 J</em>

Explanation:

Potential Energy: This is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position. The ability to stretched or compressed an elastic material to do work is called the elastic potential energy. The unit of elastic potential energy is Joules (J).

Elastic potential energy can be represented mathematically as

W = 1/2ke² ............................... Equation 1

Where W = Elastic potential Energy, k = force constant of the spring. e = extension.

<em>Given: k = 60 N/m, e = 1.0 cm = (1/100) m = 0.01 m.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>W = 1/2(60)(0.01)²</em>

<em>W = 30×0.0001</em>

<em>W = 0.003 J.</em>

<em>T</em><em>hus potential Energy stored in the spring = 0.003 J</em>

Thermodynamics

Explanation:

Thermodynamics is the study of energy. First Law of Thermodynamics: Energy can be changed from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed. The total amount of energy and matter in the Universe remains constant, merely changing from one form to another.

You walk towards Starbucks southward for 14 meters and then west for 9 meters. The trip takes you 3 minutes to walk there. What
zimovet [89]

Although you walked (14+9)= 23 meters of distance, you ended up only 16.64 meters from where you started. That's your "displacement".

Velocity = (displacement / (time)

Velocity = (16.64m)/(180s)

Velocity = 0.0925 m/s roughly Southwest.

(That's about 3.6 INCHES per second. Apparently, you really NEED that mocha java and it's associated drug.)
