In Case 1, a mass M hangs from a vertical spring having spring constant k and is at rest in its equilibrium position. In Case 2

the mass has been lifted a distance D vertically upward. If we define the potential energy in Case 1 to be zero, what is the potential energy of Case 2

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :  1/2 KD^2  ( option A )

Explanation:

P.E ( potential energy ) = mgd

In case 1 P.E = 0   i.e. mgd = 0  

Given that in case 2 the Mass M had moved through the Distance D by the compression of the spring

<u>The potential energy of the M in case 2 </u>

= P.E of M at rest + P.E of the spring

= 0 + 1/2 KD^2

What total mass must be converted into energy
Eduardwww [97]

This question apparently wants you to get comfortable
with  E = m c² .  But I must say, this question is a lame
way to do it.

c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
                                                    E = m c²

                           1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule  =  (m) (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

Divide each side by (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²:

                         Mass = (1.03 x 10⁻¹³ joule) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                                   =  (1.03 / 9) x (10⁻¹³ ⁻ ¹⁶) (kg)

                                   =        1.144 x 10⁻³⁰  kg .    (choice-1)

This is roughly the mass of (1 and 1/4) electrons, so it seems
that it could never happen in nature.  The question is just an
exercise in arithmetic, and not a particularly interesting one.

Something like this could have been much more impressive:
 
The Braidwood Nuclear Power Generating Station in northeastern
Ilinois USA serves Chicago and northern Illinois with electricity.
<span>The station has two pressurized water reactors, which can generate
a net total of 2,242 megawatts at full capacity, making it the largest
nuclear plant in the state.
If the Braidwood plant were able to completely convert mass
to energy, how much mass would it need to convert in order
to provide the total electrical energy that it generates in a year,
operating at full capacity ?

Energy = (2,242 x 10⁶ joule/sec) x (86,400 sec/day) x (365 da/yr)

             =  (2,242 x 10⁶ x 86,400 x 365) joules

             =          7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules .

How much converted mass is that ?

                                           E  =  m c²

Divide each side by  c² :    Mass  =  E / c² .
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

              Mass = (7.0704 x 10¹⁶ joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)

                        =        0.786 kilogram ! ! !

THAT should impress us !  If I've done the arithmetic correctly,
then roughly  (1 pound  11.7 ounces) of mass, if completely
converted to energy, would provide all the energy generated
by the largest nuclear power plant in Illinois, operating at max
capacity for a year !

Tems11 [23]
Well, the thing is: we don't really know, as we don't even know how many species there are on earth.

If we take a look at the estimates of <span>World Wide Fund for Nature, an organization that works toward combating species extinction, their estimates vary from 200 to 100 000 - but a probable number is 20 000 (d). </span>
