The potential energy of the spring is 6.75 J

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy stored in a spring is given by the equation:

$E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

where

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the string

For the spring in this problem, we have:

k = 150 N/m is the spring constant

x = 0.3 m is the compression

Substituting, we find

$E=\frac{1}{2}(150)(0.3)^2=6.75 J$

What is 1/12+7/9 hj

Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

$\frac{1}{12} + \frac{7}{9} \\ \\ = \frac{1 \times 3}{12 \times 3} + \frac{7 \times 4}{9 \times 4} \\ \\ = \frac{3}{36} + \frac{28}{36} \\ \\ = \frac{3 + 28}{36} \\ \\ = \frac{31}{36} \\ \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \: \frac{1}{12} + \frac{7}{9} = \frac{31}{36} }} \\$
