Answer:
Hey there!
It is false. Theories can be repeatedly tested to give people an explanation of the world.
Let me know if this helps :)
(a) 1.08 J
The elastic potential energy stored in the block at any position x is given by

where
k is the spring constant
x is the displacement relative to the equilibrium position
Here we have
k = 860 N/m
x = 5.00 cm = 0.05 m is the position of the block
Substituting, we find

(b) 1.16 m/s
The total mechanical energy of the spring-mass system is equal to the potential energy found at point (a), because there the system was at its maximum displacement, where the kinetic energy (because the speed is zero).
At the equilibrium position, the mechanical energy is sum of kinetic and potential energy
E = K + U
However, at equilibrium position x = 0, so U = 0. Therefore, the kinetic energy is equal to the total energy found at point (a)

where
m = 1.60 kg is the mass of the block
v is the speed
Solving for v, we find

(c) 1.00 m/s
When the block is at position x = 2.50 cm, the mechanical energy is sum of kinetic and potential energy:

where
E = 1.08 J is the total mechanical energy
m = 1.60 kg is the mass
v is the speed
k = 860 N/m
x = 2.50 cm = 0.025 m is the displacement
Solving for v, we find

Work = (force) x (distance)
You could look at the two cases, and see right away that
the first one has more force acting through more distance,
so it must be more work. But since I just gave you the formula
for Work, let's calculate the amount of it for both cases:
First case: Work = (115 N) x (15 m) = 1,725 joules
Second case: Work = (20 N) x (10 m) = 200 joules
The first case involves 8.625 times as much work as the second case.
Answer:
<u> Power = 9.75 ×10^8
</u>
Explanation:
- Power is rate of change of energy.
- Here gravitational energy is transferred to kinetic energy of water at a definite rate.
For one second 650m^3 of water flows out down to 150m oh depth.
So, the energy at a height of 150m is transformed to kinetic energy.
for a second,
650m^3 of water flows down ⇒ (1000kg/m^3 × 650m^3) = 6.5×10^5kg of warer flos down.
The total gravitational potential energy stored in water is
= <u>mass of water × height× gravity</u>
= 6.5 ×10^5 × 150 × 10 = 9.75 ×10^8
As it is transformed in a second it is also equal to <u>Power.</u>
