Answer:
The atoms that contain an unstable combination of neutrons and protons, or excess energy in their nucleus
Answer:
0.045 J
Explanation:
From the question,
The elastic potential energy stored in a spring is given as,
E = 1/2ke²...................... Equation 1
Where E = elastic potential energy, k = spring constant, e = compression.
Given: k = 100 N/m, e = 0.05-0.02 = 0.03 m
Substitute these values into equation 1
E = 1/2(100)(0.03²)
E = 50(9×10⁻⁴)
E = 0.045 J
Hence the right option is 0.045 J
