<u>Elastic Potential Energy
</u>
Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.
Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.
Solving for Δx:
Substituting:
Calculating:
Answer:
K = -½U
Explanation:
From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;
U = -GMm/R
Where,
G is gravitational constant
M and m are the two masses exerting the forces
R is the distance between the two objects
Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;
K = GMm/2R
Re-rranging, we have;
K = ½(GMm/R)
Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;
K = -½U

Answer:
F = 800N
the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N
Explanation:
Applying the impulse-momentum equation;
Impulse = change in momentum
Ft = m∆v
F = (m∆v)/t
Where;
F = force
t = time
m = mass
∆v = v2 - v1 = change in velocity
Given;
m = 0.80 kg
t = 0.050 s
The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounces back with this same speed.
v2 = 25 m/s
v1 = -25 m/s
∆v = v2 - v1 = 25 - (-25) m/s = 25 +25 = 50 m/s
Substituting the values;
F = (m∆v)/t
F = (0.80×50)/0.05
F = 800N
the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N
