Question

A spring's natural length is 10 m. If it requires 5 J to stretch the spring from 13 m to 17 m, find the amount of work required to stretch the spring from 17 m to 25 m. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: spring's natural length is 10 m.

I.e x0 = 10 m 

When the spring is stretched it's length becomes x' = xi + 10 m 

So, here x1 = 13 -10 = 3 m 

x2 = 17-10 = 7 m

x3 = 25-10 = 15 m
