Answer:

51.94 ft/s²

257.63 ft/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 4 s

u = Initial velocity = 34 mi/h

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 615 ft

a = Acceleration

Converting velocity to ft/s

34\ mi/h=\frac{34\times 5280}{3600}=49.87\ ft/s

Equation of motion

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow a=2\frac{s-ut}{t^2}\\\Rightarrow a=2\left(\frac{615-49.87\times 4}{4^2}\right)\\\Rightarrow a=51.94\ ft/s^2

Acceleration is 51.94 ft/s²

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=49.87+51.94\times 4\\\Rightarrow v=257.63\ ft/s

Final velocity at this time is 257.63 ft/s

The graph in the accompanying figure (Figure 1) shows the magnitude of the force exerted by a given spring as a function of the
serious [3.7K]

The elastic potential energy stored in the stretched spring is 1 J.

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

Hooke's law states that; provided the elastic limit is not exceeded, the extension of the spring is directly proportional to the force on the spring.

Given that;

Force on the spring = 350 Newton

Distance stretched = 7 centimeters or 0.07 m

Hence;

F = ke

k = F/e = 350 Newton/0.07 m = 5000 N/m

Work done in stretching a spring = 1/2ke^2

= 0.5 × 5000 × (2 × 10^-2)^2 =1 J
