A glider of mass 0.240 kgkg is on a frictionless, horizontal track, attached to a horizontal spring of force constant 6.00 N/mN/m. Initially the spring (whose other end is fixed) is stretched by 0.100 mm and the attached glider is moving at 0.400 m/sm/s in the direction that causes the spring to stretch farther. What is the total mechanical energy (kinetic energy plus elastic potential energy) of the system? Express your answer with the appropriate units. b) When the glider comes momentarily to rest, by what distance is the spring stretched? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

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.
