It takes a force of $5.00 \mathrm{~N}$ to stretch an ideal spring $2.00 \mathrm{~cm} .$ (a) What force does it take to stretch the spring an additional $4.00 \mathrm{~cm}$ ? (b) By what factor does the stored clastic potential energy increase when the spring, originally stretched $2.00 \mathrm{~cm}$, is stretched $4.00 \mathrm{~cm}$ more?
A massless spring initially compressed by a displacement of two centimeters is now compressed by four centimeters. How has the potential energy of this system changed? (A) The potential energy has not changed. (B) The potential energy has doubled. (C) The potential energy has increased by two joules. (D) The potential energy has quadrupled.
A metal wire is first stretched beyond its elastic limit and then released. It (a) loses its elastic property completely and it will not contract. (b) will contract to its original length. (c) will contract to its length at elastic limit. (d) will contract but final length will be greater than original length.
