Answer:
5.522 m
Explanation:
Data provided:
Mass, m = 1.03 kg
spring constant, k = 861.1 N/m
Distance by which the spring is compressed, x = 0.36
Thus,
the energy stored in the spring =
on substituting the values, we get
the energy stored in the spring =
now,
by the conservation of energy, we have
Potential energy gained by the mass = Energy gained by the spring
or
mgh =
where,
g is the acceleration due to the gravity
h is the maximum height reached by the mass before falling
on substituting the values in the above relation, we get
1.03 × 9.81 × h =
or
h = 5.522 m
