2. When stretching a spring, the force applied is roughly proportional to it's extension.
- True
- False
3. What is the definition of Energy and it's effect?
- Energy allows body A to do work on body B, transferring energy from body B to body A
- Energy allows body A to do work on body B, transferring energy from body A to body B
- Energy is a scalar quantity equal to the power trapped ib mass
- Energy is the property held by any moving mass
4. For a spring, the area under a graph of Force (y axis) against Extension (x axis) (and therefore work done) can be calculated by...? (where s is the vector of extension parallel to force F)
- Area = 2FΔs
- Area = Fs
- Area = ½FΔs
- Area = FΔs
5. For a spring, the work done in extending the spring can be expressed by the equation...?
- Area = ½F(Δs^2)
- Area = ½(F^2)Δs
- Area = F(Δs^2)
- Area = 2F(Δs^2)
