Answer:
Explanation:
Give that,
Spring constant (k)=40N/m
Force applied =75N
Since the force is applied to the right, we don't know if it is compressing or stretching the spring
So let assume it compress
Using hooke's law
F=-ke
e=-F/k
Then, e=-75/40
e=-1.875m
The deformation is 1.875m.
Let assume it stretch
-F=-ke
e=F/k
Then, e=75/40
e=1.875m
The elongation is 1.875m
A is the answer I think pls check it
a) Power = work / time = force × distance / time
P = Fd/t
P = (85 kg × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (12 s)
P ≈ 319 W
b) P = Fd/t
0.70 (319 W) = (m × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (9.6 s)
m = 47.6 kg
