Answer:

Elastic Force

Explanation:

As we pull the spring from one of its end by some distance such that its length is stretched by some amount "x"

So here the restoring force on the spring is given as

F = kx

so here we know

k = coefficient of elasticity

x = change in the length of spring

So here the restoring force on the spring will be Elastic force which always act opposite to the direction of displacement of the spring

A woman throws a baseball straight up into the air. what is the baseball's acceleration at its highest point?
AleksandrR [38]
After the ball leaves the woman's hand, the only relevant force acting on the ball is the gravity, which produces an acceleration of a=g=9.81 m/s^2 on the baseball, directed downward. 
Gravity acts on the ball for the whole duration of the motion, so the acceleration of the ball is g=9.81 m/s^2 at every point of the motion, and therefore also when the baseball is at its highest point.

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s  b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

  • Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
  • This work, is just 4,475 J.
  • So we can write the following equation:

        \Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J

  • where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
  • So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

        v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} }  = 1.89 m/s

b)

  • The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

        W = F*d

  • We can solve for F, as follows:

        F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} =  172.1 N
