Explanation:
<u>Elastic Potential Energy
</u>
Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.

Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.
Solving for Δx:

Substituting:

Calculating:


Answer:
14 m/s
Explanation:
u = 0, h = 10 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2
Use third equation of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2 g h
Here, v be the velocity of ball as it just strikes with the ground
v^2 = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 10
v^2 = 196
v = 14 m/s
Answer:
The bus
Explanation:
a = (v-u)/t
Where
a = acceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time taken
For truck to get its acceleration,
a = (18-0)/5.5 = 3.27 ms⁻²
For bus to get its acceleration,
a = (24-0)/6 = 4 ms⁻²
As 4 > 3.27 bus has a greater acceleration.
