Static equilibrium means that all forces are equal, so make this easiest you want to break F1 into it's horizontal and vertical components. As there are no other forces acting in the horizontal, we know the horizontal component of F1 is 40N. This allows the vertical component to be found using pythagorus theorem. After finding the vertical and horizontal components, you just have to add the vertical components to find the difference between the up and down.
Answer:
The same amount of energy is required to either stretch or compress the spring.
Explanation:
The amount of energy required to stretch or compress a spring is equal to the elastic potential energy stored by the spring:
where
k is the spring constant
is the stretch/compression of the spring
In the first case, the spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, so
and the amount of energy required is
In the second case, the spring is compressed from x=0 to x=-d, so
and the amount of energy required is
so we see that the amount of energy required is the same.
