Answer:
This is the equation for elastic potential energy, where U is potential energy, x is the displacement of the end of the spring, and k is the spring constant.
U = (1/2)kx^2
U = (1/2)(5.3)(3.62-2.60)^2
U = 2.75706 J

Explanation:
Answer:
(a). Energy is 64,680 J
(b) velocity is 51.43m/s
(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph
Explanation:
(a).
The potential energy 
of the payload of mass 
is at a vertical distance 
is
.
Therefore, for the payload of mass 
at a vertical distance of 
, the potential energy is
(b).
When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,
(c).
The velocity in mph is
Answer:
2.210N
Explanation:
Workdone = Force x distance
Distance = 38m , Workdone = 84J
Hence 84J = Force x 38m
Force = 84J / 38m
Force = 2.210N =2.2N
Think of it this way:
-- Any time you have something that means (some number) PER UNIT,
it doesn't matter how many units there are on the table or in the bucket,
because that amount doesn't change the (number) PER UNIT.
-- If oranges cost $1 PER POUND, it doesn't matter how many pounds
you buy, the whole bagful is still $1 PER POUND.
-- If a certain salad dressing has 40 calories PER Tablespoon, it doesn't
matter whether you eat a drop of it or drink the whole jar. You still get
40 calories PER Tablespoon.
-- Density means '(mass) PER unit of volume'. Whether you have a tiny
chip of the substance or a whole truckload of it, there's still the same
amount of mass IN EACH unit of volume.
