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.

Consider the observation that the acceleration due to the gravitational force acting on a mass around a host planet decreases with the square of the separation between the objects. We can ask ourselves: why is it still accurate to consider a gravitational acceleration value of 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}9.8s2m for all of our projectile motion problems and all of our gravitational potential energy from prior modules? Let's analyze a situation and justify this analysis method: consider an object being launched from ground level to an altitude of 10,000 meters, roughly the cruising altitude of most jet liners, and far above our everyday experiences on Earth's surface. Compare the gravitational acceleration of the object at Earth's surface (the radius of Earth is about r_E=6.37\times10^6mrE=6.37×106m) to the acceleration value at the 10,000 meter altitude by determining the following ratio: g10,000m/gsurface

A massless spring of constant k =78.4 N/m is fixed on the leftside of a level track. A block of mass m = 0.50 kg is pressedagainst the spring and compresses it a distance d, as in FigureP7.74. The block (initially at rest) is then released andtravels toward a circular loop-the-loop of radius R= 1.5 m.The entire track and the loop-the-loop are frictionless, except for the section of track between points A and B. Given thatthe coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and thetrack along AB is μk = 0.30 and that the length of AB is 2.5 m,determine the minimum compression d of the spring thatenables the block to just make it through the loop-the-loop atpoint C. Hint: The force exerted by the track on the block willbe zero if the block barely makes it through the loop-the-loop.
Please answer all 3 sub-parts 1. A golfer tees up their ball on top of a 25m tall cliff. The golf ball weighs 45.5 grams. The golfer swings their 200g club at a speed of 42m/s. Assume there is no air resistance. However, this golfer has been known to tell some extraordinary stories. Explain if each situation is possible using conservation of energy. Assume friction/air resistance ARE present. a) They hit a ball in a completely flat field, and the ball followed a parabolic trajectory (like in projectile motion). They measured the ball speed at takeoff to be 91m/s. When the ball landed 145m away, they measured their ball speed on landing to be 94m/s. b) They hit the ball along the ground. When the ball left the club, it was moving at 2m/s. When the ball went in the hole, it was moving at only 0.9m/s. c) The golfer claims that hitting the ball with a club that is four times as massive at the same speed makes the ball go two times faster off the tee.
