A ball is pushed into a spring-loaded launcher with a force of 20 N, which compresses the spring 0.08 m. A) What is the spring constant of the spring
B) Find the elastic potential energy (PEs) stored in the spring (or the work done on the spring)

0.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force  = 20N

Compression  = 0.08m

Unknown:

Spring constant  = ?

Elastic potential energy  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

           F = k e

F is the force

k is the spring constant

e is the compression

             20  = k x 0.08

              k  = 250N/m

Elastic potential energy;

       EPE  = k e²    =    x 250 x 0.08²

 Elastic potential energy = 0.8J

hèllo, sorry i really need some more points so if you need this qustion answered than retype it

hi there!

your question asks at which segment does freezing occur.

since we're talking about water, the freezing point of water will be 32 degrees fahrenheit or below.

hope this ! ~
