As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. When you push the platform, you compress the springs. You do an amount of work of 76.0 J when you compress the springs a distance of 0.170 m from their uncompressed length. (a) What magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position?
(b) How much additional work must you do to move the platform 0.200 m farther, and what maximum force must you apply?

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)
