Answer:

16 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Work done, W = 2 J

A spring is stretched by 2.0 cm from its equilibrium length

We need to find how much more work will be required to stretch it an additional 4.0 cm.

Let k is the spring constant of the spring. When W = 2J, and x = 2 cm, then energy required to stretch the spring is :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\k=\dfrac{2U}{x^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{2(2)}{(0.02)^2}\\\\k=10000\ N/m

The energy required to stretch the spring from 2 cm to additional 4 cm i.e. 2+4= 6 cm.

W=\dfrac{1}{2}k(x_2^2-x_1^2)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10000\times ((0.06)^2-(0.02)^2)\\\\W=16\ J

So, the required work done is 16 J.

Why do some athletes engage in cross training
tigry1 [53]

Answer; Cross training enables your body to recuperate faster from injuries, in some cases because other exercises can directly improve the condition caused by your regular activity. For example, Achilles tendonitis, caused by overuse, can be improved by eccentric strengthening of the calf muscles.Explanation:

A gold ball has a mass of 45g. In a speed test, a golf ball was driven from rest to a velocity of 90m/s.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

1)

Acceleration (a)=change in velocity/ change in time

Velocity (v)=90m/s

Time=0.0005s

a=90/0.0005

The acceleration =180000m/s^2 or 180km/s^2

Force = mass x acceleration

m=40g= 0.04kg

F= 0.04x 180000

F= 7200N or 7.2kN
