Work done by a Spring - Deriving Elastic Potential Energy (9:27)
When we place a 1.00 kg mass on a spring, the end of the spring moves from the 34.4 cm mark to the 30.2 cm mark and comes to rest. (a) What is the spring constant of the spring? (b) What is the work done by the spring on the mass? This is an AP Physics C: Mechanics topic.
