Answer:
the energy increases 4 times
Explanation:
A spring has an elastic potential energy that is given by the expression
K_e = ½ K (x-x₀)²
where x is the distance from the equilibrium point and k is the return constant
if the spring is stretched at x-x₀ = 2x₀, the energy value
K_e = ½ k (2x₀)²
K_e = ½ k 4 x₀²
K_e = 4 (½ k x₀²)
= 4
therefore the energy increases 4 times
Answer:
b. 0.45 meters
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Spring constant, k = 330 N/m
Force = 150 N
To find the extension of the spring;
Mathematically, the force exerted on a spring is given by the formula;
Force = spring constant * extension
Substituting into the formula, we have;
150 = 330 * extension
Extension, e = 150/330
Extension, e = 0.45 meters
I believe Action potential is the brief wave of positive charge that sweeps down the axon. Axon is part of the neuron that conducts impulses from the dendrites towards the cell body along the neuron. The action potential is brief since the sodium channels can only stay open for a very brief amount of time. As it travels along the neuron there is a change in polarity across the membrane of the axon .
