Answer:

0.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force = 20N

Compression = 0.08m

Unknown:

Spring constant = ?

Elastic potential energy = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

F = k e

F is the force

k is the spring constant

e is the compression

20 = k x 0.08

k = 250N/m

Elastic potential energy;

EPE = $\frac{1}{2}$ k e² = $\frac{1}{2}$ x 250 x 0.08²

Elastic potential energy = 0.8J

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°</em>

Explanation:

<u>Operations With Vectors</u>

Given two vectors in rectangular components:

$\vec a=(ax,ay)\ ,\ \vec b=(bx,by)$

The sum of the vectors is:

$\vec a+\vec b=(ax+bx,ay+by)$

The difference between the vectors is:

$\vec a-\vec b=(ax-bx,ay-by)$

The magnitude of $\vec a$ is:

$|\vec a|=\sqrt{ax^2+ay^2}$

The angle $\vec a$ makes with the horizontal positive direction is:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{ay}{ax}\\$

The question provides the vectors:

$\vec a=(2,6)$

$\vec b=(2,22)$

$\vec d=\vec a-\vec b$

Calculate:

$\vec d=(2,6)-(2,22)=(0,-16)$

The magnitude of $\vec d$ is:

$|\vec d|=\sqrt{0^2+(-16)^2}=\sqrt{0+256}=16$

The angle is calculated by:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{-16}{0}$

The division cannot be calculated because the denominator is zero. We need to estimate the correct angle by looking at the components of the vector. Since the x-coordinate is zero and the y-coordinate is negative, the vector points downwards (south), thus the angle must be -90° or 270° if the range goes from 0° to 360°.

The magnitude of vector d is 16 and the angle with the x-axis is 270°
