Under the action of a force P, the cart moves from the initial position x1 = -6 in. to the final position x2 = 3 in. Determine (a) the work done on the cart by the spring and (b) the work done on the cart by its weight. Unstretched position 3 lb/in. 14 lb wwww 15°arrow_forwardAn archer using a simple bow exerts a force of 165 N to draw back the bow string 0.51 m. (Assume the given force is the force exerted at the very end of the pull.) (a) What is the total work (in J) done by the archer in preparing to launch her arrow? (Hint: Compute the total work as: total work = Fanal - Finitia ld.) Ffinal (b) If all the work is converted into the kinetic energy of the arrow upon its release, what is the arrow's speed (in m/s) as it leaves the bow? Assume the mass of the arrow is 0.021 kg and ignore any kinetic energy in the bow as it relaxes to its original shape. m/s (c) If the arrow is shot straight up, what is the maximum height (in m) achieved by the arrow? Ignore any effects due to air resistance in making your assessment. (Assume the arrow is initially 2 m from the ground.)arrow_forward
- A spring, of spring constant k, is stretched out by a displacement from equilibrium of d and then held in place. If the spring constant is doubled, and it is again stretched out by a distance of d, how much work, relative to the first spring, is required to achieve this stretch? Double the work. Half the work. Zero work. O Four times the work. One forth of the work.arrow_forwardA spring has a mass of 500 grams, when suspended its length increases by 5 cm. Calculate the constant and its potential energy.arrow_forward(a) The figure below shows an 8.00 kg stone at rest on a spring. The spring is compressed 10.0 cm by the stone. (a) What is the spring constant? (b) The stone is pushed down an additional 30.0 cm and released. What is the elastic potential energy of the compressed spring just before that release? (c) What is the change in the gravi- tational potential energy of the stone-Earth system when the stone moves from the release point to its maximum height? (d) What is that maximum height, measured from the release point? 00000arrow_forward
