Step 1. Calculate the Total Force Acting on Block R: The total force on block R due to its weight is:
\( F = m \times g = 3 \, \text{kg} \times 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 30 \, \text{N} \)
Step 2. Determine the Tension T1 in Wire B: Assuming the system is in equilibrium, the net force acting on P, Q, and R needs to balance out, with wire B supporting the tension:
\( T_1 = F - T_2 = 20 \, \text{N} \)
Step 3. Calculate Longitudinal Strain: Strain = \( \frac{\text{stress}}{Y} \) where stress = \( \frac{T_1}{A} \) and \( A = 0.005 \, \text{cm}^2 = 0.5 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2 \):
\( \text{strain} = \frac{T_1}{A \times Y} = \frac{20}{0.5 \times 10^{-6} \times 2 \times 10^{11}} = 2 \times 10^{-4} \)
A 2 $\text{kg}$ mass is attached to a spring with spring constant $ k = 200, \text{N/m} $. If the mass is displaced by $ 0.1, \text{m} $, what is the potential energy stored in the spring?
