Question: Calculate the potential energy of a material with a
load of 18.35kg which is stretched by 0.5m.
Express your answer in scientific notation with 2
significant figures.

Solution:
Step 1: W =mg=10 kg x 9.8 m/s 2 = 179.83 N
F 179.83 N
Step 2: k = spring = = 359.66 N/m
x 0.5 m
1 2 1
Step 3: PE= k x = (359.66 N /m) ¿ = 44.96J
2 2
=4.5 x 10 J
Answer: 4.5 x 10 J
