Answer:
94.28 cm
Explanation:
The formula for elastic potential energy is given as;
PEel = 1/2 *k*x² where x is the displacement, k is the spring constant
Given
PEel = 110 J, k= 350 N/m then find x
PEel = 1/2 *k*x²
110 = 1/2 * 350 * x²
110 = 175 x²
110/175 = x²
0.6286=x²
√0.6286 =x
0.7928 m = x
79.28 cm = x
New length of spring = 15 cm + 79.28 cm = 94.28 cm
