Amassless spring with force constant =200n/m hangs from the ceiling. a 2.0-kg block is attached to the free end of the spring and released. if the block falls 17 cm before starting back upwards, how much work is done by friction during its descent?

-0.4454 Joules

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 2 kg

h = Height of extension = 17 cm = x

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Potential energy of the spring

The kinetic energy of the spring

In this system as the potential and kinetic energy is conserved from work energy equivalence we get

The work done by friction is -0.4454 Joules

c because the news are a source of information of things that happen on the daily and shows evidence about that particular topic

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
