Answer:
E = 0.01 J
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of the cart, m = 0.15 kg
The force constant of the spring, k = 3.58 N/m
The amplitude of the oscillations, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m
We need to find the total mechanical energy of the system. It can be given by the formula as follows :

Put all the values,

So, the value of total mechanical energy is equal to 0.01 J.
You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:
==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.
==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.
==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.
==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.
Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box
All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...
(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.
If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.
Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)
All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...
(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero
(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
The resistance of the piece of wire is

where

is the resistivity of the copper

is the length of the piece of wire

is the cross sectional area of the wire
By substituting these values, we find the value of R:

Then, by using Ohm's law, we find the potential difference between the two points of the wire:
In physical terms, a force does work if it moves an object in the direction the force is pointing towards.
In your example, the force is pushing a tray up. But the force doesn't move the tray any further up. It remains at the same height.
The is no force done by this force.
