If the atomic masses of hydrogen and helium are 1.007825 u and 4.002603 u respectively and the neutron mass is 1.008665 u. Calculate the binding energy of alpha particle

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 79.0 j when you compress the springs a distance of 0.230 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 a distance 0.230 m farther? (c) what maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.230 m farther?

Abatter hits a 0.140-kg baseball that was approaching him at 30 m/s and, as a result, the ball leaves the bat at 40 m/s in the reverse of its original direction. the ball remains in contact with the bat for 2.0 ms. what is the magnitude of the average force exerted by the bat on the ball?

Which best describes the difference between internal and thermal energy?
