Aspring with a constant of 120 n/m stretches by 0.02 m. what is the potential energy of the spring

Potential energy of the spring is 0.024 Joules.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 120 N/m

The spring is stretched by 0.02 m

We have to find the potential energy of the spring. Mathematically, it is given by :

Putting the values of k and x in above equation we get :

PE = 0.024 J

Hence, the potential energy of the spring is 0.024 J

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
