Answer:

Explanation:

Potential energy, which is the energy a body assumes at a position, can be calculated using the formula:

P.E = m × g × h

Where;

m = mass (kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity (10m/s²)

h = height (m)

The force required to stretch a Hooke’s-law spring varies from 0 N to 63.5 N as we stretch the spring by moving one end 5.31 cm

Alika [10]

Answer:

Force constant will be 1195.85 N/m

Work done will be 1.6859 J

Explanation:

We have given the force, F = 63.5 N

Spring is stretched by 5.31 cm

So x = 0.0531 m

Force is given , F = 63.5 N

We know that force is given by $F=kx$

So $63.5=k\times 0.0531$

k = 1195.85 N/m

Now we have to find the work done

We know that work done is given by

$W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 1195.85\times 0.0531^2=1.6859J$

What change occurs to the mass of an object when an unbalanced force is applied to it

strojnjashka [21]

The mass of an object always stays the same since it is really just the amount of matter in an object so no matter the force applied, as long as the object does not lose or gain matter, the object stays the same
