The height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.
<h3>
Conservation of energy</h3>
The height above the ground from where the skier start is determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below;
P.E = K.E
mgh = ¹/₂mv²
gh = ¹/₂v²

Thus, the height above the ground from where the skier start is 11.5 m.

-- There are three pairs of mass with gravitational forces between them.
-- The distances between the masses are the same for each pair.
-- The only other quantity that determines the strength of the gravitational
force is the product of the masses.
-- The product of the masses is greatest for the apple and the watermelon,
so the strength of the gravitational force between them is the greatest.
Answer:
1.503 J
Explanation:
Work done in stretching a spring = 1/2ke²
W = 1/2ke²........................... Equation 1
Where W = work done, k = spring constant, e = extension.
Given: k = 26 N/m, e = (0.22+0.12), = 0.34 m.
Substitute into equation 1
W = 1/2(26)(0.34²)
W = 13(0.1156)
W = 1.503 J.
Hence the work done to stretch it an additional 0.12 m = 1.503 J
