4. An archer pulls a bowstring back 0.440 m, and the spring constant of the bow is 545 N/m.

a.) Find the amount of work the archer did to draw the bow.
b.) Find the speed an arrow of mass 0.060 kg will have when it is shot from the bow.
Assume no losses from friction

Answer: (a)part:545nm multiply by 0.440m=239.8JEWELS(J)

(B):1/2MULTIPLY BY MVSQUARE(APPLY THE FORMULA OF KINETIC ENERGY)REARANGE THE FORMULA,V=2.13MS

Step-by-step explanation:

SO FOR PART A, IN ORDER TO CALCULATE THE WORK DONE YOUR SUPPOSE TO APPLY THE FORMULA FORCE MULTIPLY BY DISTANCE WHICH IS THE FORMULA FOR WORK DONE,IN THIS SCENARIO YOU HAD A FORCE OF 545NM AND A DISANCE OF 0.440,SO I ORDER TO FIND THE WORK DONE WE MULTIPLIED THEM BOTHE ACCORDING TO THE FORMULA AND GOT THE ANSWER.

FOR PARTB,I JUST SIMPLY APPLIED THE FORMULA FOR KINETIC ENERGY AND SIMPLY REARRANGED IT IN ORDER TO FIND THE VELOCITY.I MADE V THE SUBJECT OF THE FORMULA.
