How far must you stretch a spring with k = 1000 N/m to store 200 J of energy?
Short Answer
As the all we solve above from that we have , the spring's stretched distance is.

The maximum energy a bone can absorb without breaking is surprisingly small. Experimental data show that the leg bones of a healthy, 60 kg human can absorb about 200 J. From what maximum height could a 60 kg person jump and land rigidly upright on both feet without breaking his legs? Assume that all energy is absorbed by the leg bones in a rigid landing
A 10 kg runaway grocery cart runs into a spring with spring constant 250 N/m and compresses it by 60 cm. What was the speed of the cart just before it hit the spring?
a. A ice cube can slide without friction up and down a slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring at the bottom of the slope, compressing the spring . The spring constant is . When the ice cube is released, what total distance will it travel up the slope before reversing direction?
b. The ice cube is replaced by a plastic cube whose coefficient of kinetic friction is . How far will the plastic cube travel up the slope? Use work and energy.
A system of two objects has .
a. How much work is done by interaction forces?
b. How much work is done by external forces?
