If it requires 7.0 j of work to stretch a particular spring by 2.1 cm from its equilibrium length, how much more work will be required to stretch it an additional 3.5 cm ?
4.6 j more. To get this take 7 and multiply it by 3.5 to get 24.5 take the x which is what you’re looking for and multiply it by the 2.1 to get 2.1x. Take 24.5 and divide it by 2.1 x and get 11.6. Subtract 11.6 by 7 and get 4.6
