Question 1174202: The number of centimeters, d, that a spring is compressed from its natural, uncompressed position is given by the formula d = square root 2W divded by k where W is the number of joules of work done to move the spring and k is the spring constant. Solve this equation for W. Use the result to determine the work needed to move a spring 2 centimeters if it has a spring constant of 0.4. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
