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

Tourists covered 255 km for a 4-hour ride by car and a 7-hour ride by train. what is the speed of the train, if it is 5 km/h gre
LekaFEV [45]
The distance covered by car is equal to (assuming it is moving by uniform motion) the product between the car's speed and the time of the car ride, 4 h:
S_c = v_c t_c
where
v_c is the car's speed
t_c = 4 h is the duration of the car ride

Similarly, the distance covered by train is equal to the product between the train's speed and the duration of the train ride, 7 h:
S_t = v_t t_t

The total distance covered is S=255 km, which is the sum of the distances covered by car and train:
S=255 km = S_c + S_t
which becomes
255 = 4 v_c + 7 v_t (1)
we also know that the train speed is 5 km/h greater than the car's speed:
v_t = 5 + v_c (2)

If we put (2) into (1), we find
255 = 4v_c + 7(5+v_c)
and if we solve it, we find
v_c = 20 km/h
v_t = 25 km/h

So, the car speed is 20 km/h and the train speed is 25 km/h.

An object is moving forward with a constant velocity. Which statement about this object MUST be true?
Greeley [361]

If the object's <em>velocity is constant</em> ... (it's speed isn't changing AND it's moving in a straight line) ... then the net force on the object is zero.<em> (D)</em>

Either there are no forces at all acting on the object, OR there are forces on it but they're 'balanced' ... when you add up all of their sizes and directions, they just exactly cancel each other out, and they have the SAME EFFECT on the object as if there were no forces at all.
