A spring with a spring constant of 350 N/m pulls a door closed. How much work is done as the spring pulls the door at a constant velocity from an 85.0-cam stretch to a 5.0-cm stretch?

Sagot :

The work done to stretch the spring will be 112 J.

What is spring force?

The force required to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance is known as the spring force. Its formula is

F = kx

The given data in the problem is;

F is the spring force =?

K is the spring constant= 8.5 N/m

x is the length by which spring got stretched = 1.2m

The work is done to stretch the spring is;

[tex]\rm W= \frac{1}{2} kx^2 \\\\ W=\frac{1}{2} \times 350 \times (0.850-0.050)^2 \\\\ W=0.5 \times 350 \times (0.80)^2 \\\\W=112 \ J[/tex]
