The formula to calculate the energy stored in a spring is given by:
E = (1/2)kx²
where E is the energy stored, k is the force constant, and x is the compression or extension of the spring.
Given:
k = 100 N/m (force constant)
x = 0.04 m (compression)
Plugging these values into the formula:
E = (1/2)(100)(0.04)²
E = (1/2)(100)(0.0016)
E = 0.08 Joules
Therefore, the energy stored in the spring is 0.08 Joules.
A spiral spring is compress.by 0.04m
Calculate the energy stored in the spring if the force constant is 100N/m
