Answer:
The same amount of energy is required to either stretch or compress the spring.
Explanation:
The amount of energy required to stretch or compress a spring is equal to the elastic potential energy stored by the spring:
where
k is the spring constant
is the stretch/compression of the spring
In the first case, the spring is stretched from x=0 to x=d, so
and the amount of energy required is
In the second case, the spring is compressed from x=0 to x=-d, so
and the amount of energy required is
so we see that the amount of energy required is the same.
By definition, the gravitational force is given by:
Where,
G: gravitational constant
m1: mass of object 1
m2: mass of object 2
r: distance between objects:
We know that the force is equal to 10N:
If the distance is double we have:
Therefore, the new force is:
2.5 newtons
Answer:
the changed force of attraction between them is:
A. 2.5 newtons
