Given that,

bug speed, v= 0.85 m/s

time, t =42 s

Final position of bug on meter stick was 27 cm

Starting position of bug on meter stick = ?

Since we know that,

s = vt

s= 0.85*42 = 35.7 cm

this is the distance covered by bug in the given time and velocity.

since the bug is moving in negative direction, starting point will be:

27.0 cm+ 35.7 cm = 62.7 cm

The bugs starting position on meter stick was 62.7 cm.

How much work is needed to stretch this spring a distance of 5.0 cm , starting with it unstretched?
olganol [36]

The spring's work output while it is not extended is 5 J.

<h3>What is The Hooke's law ?</h3>

According to Hooke's law, as long as the elastic limit is not exceeded, the extension of a particular material is directly proportional to the force applied. Hence, we must be aware of that F = Ke

F = Applied force

Force constant is K.

Extension = e

F = applied force

Force constant is K.

Extension = e

Using the graph

K = F/e

F = 200N

E equals 5 cm or 5 * 10-2 m

K = 200N/ 5 * 10^-2 m

K = 4000 N/m

Now;

Work = 1/2Ke^2

Work = 0.5 * 4000 N/m * (5 * 10^-2 m)^2

Work = 5 J
