What two factors are causing the force that stretches the spring? what would happen to the spring if the force were increased? is the relationship between force and the elastic energy (eel) a direct or inverse relationship?

Astone weighing 1.5 kilograms is resting on a rock at a height of 20 meters above the ground. the stone rolls down 10 meters and comes to rest on a patch of moss. the gravitational potential energy of the stone on the moss is joules.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

6–48 bananas are to be cooled from 24 to 138c at a rate of 215 kg/h by a refrigeration system. the power input to the refrigerator is 1.4 kw. determine the rate of cooling, in kj/ min, and the cop of the refrigerator. the specific heat of banana above freezing is 3.35 kj/kg·8c.
