A0.1 kg apple drops 2m hitting a spring. the spring deforms 0.1m.
what is the spring constant ?

392 N/m

Explanation:

We know that the total mechancial enery will be conserved from when the apple drops to when it hit the spring.  Therefore, we can set the potential energy of the apple equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring.

PE = mgh and SE = 1/2kx² — PE is the initial potential energy of the apple and SE is the elastic potential energy of the spring.

mgh = 1/2kx².  (.1)(9.8)(2) = (1/2)(k)(.1²), solve for k. k = 392

when the use of electricity burdens the fuse and miniarure circuit beakers and there is a possibility of a fuse then they automatically cut off the electricity supply to your homes and after you fix the problem u jzt switch it on and it continues the supply of electricity to ur homes

as technology advances, new experiments often expose problems in accepted theories. c
