A bungee cord with a spring constant of 800 stretches 6 meters at its greatest displacement. How much elastic potential energy d

Vinil7 [7]

Elastic potential energy is given by formula

$U = \frac{1}{2} kx^2$

here we know that

$k = 800 N/m$

$x = 6 m$

Now using above formula we have

$U = \frac{1}{2}(800)(6^2)$

$U = 14400 J$

So elastic potential energy in the chord is 14400 J

To move a refrigerator of mass 170 kg into a house, a mover puts it on a dolly and covers the steps leading into the house with

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

mass (m) = 170 kg, Distance (s) = 9.6 m

Height (h) = 3.3 m, Force (F) = 1400 N

First, we will calculate the work performed by her as follows.

W = Fs

= $1400 N \times 9.6 m$

= 13440 J

Hence, minimal work necessary to lift the refrigerator is as follows.

U = mgh

= $170 kg \times 9.8 \times 3.3 m$

= 5497.8 J

Therefore, we can conclude that he performed 5497.8 J of work.
