Spring Potential Energy

The potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or the energy held by the object due to its position relative to other objects, its force like stresses, charge, and other factors affecting the particles of the body. The potential energy is the measure of the net work done by or on the body. The spring potential energy is the potential energy stored due to the deformation of an elastic spring and this elasticity is due to the stretched spring. The elasticity is the ability of a solid-state matter to come back to its equilibrium position or original position after any kind of external force is acted on it. It is also known as Elastic potential energy. The potential energy here is caused due to the displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position to another position and this potential energy is equal to the net work done due to the stretching of the spring. It also resembles the same mechanics of the oscillation of a simple pendulum, where due to the external force, the object moves from its equilibrium position to its maximum ends and the periodic motion continues till it comes back to the equilibrium position to rest.

For the cube from problem 1, instead of having a person push the cube, we are going to attach a spring to it. The box is pulled to compress the spring 50 cm, then released. If the stiffness of the spring is 500 N/m, what acceleration will the cube experience? b. Now, we will move the cube and spring device to a smooth, tile floor, and we will place the cube on wheels. This will lead to some, non-negligible amount of friction. If the coefficient of static friction between the wheels and the floor is 0.07, what acceleration will the cube experience? Replace the single, large cube from the previous problems with two smaller cubes with the masses 5 kg, and 10 kg. Now we're back on the ice. The two cubes are side-by-side. Now a person pushes on box 1 with a force of 50 N at an angle of 30°. What is the acceleration of the boxes?
