The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of any system during any process always remains constant, as long as the system remains conservative.
In the given problem, a ball of mass m is initially kept at a height h from the top of the spring.
So by virtue of its height from the reference point of the spring, this ball will have some potential energy, which is given as
As initially the spring remains in equilibrium with itself, the energy of the spring is zero.
So this potential energy is the total initial energy of the system of the ball and the spring.

- A crane at a construction site lifts a concrete block with a mass of m = 482 kg from the ground to the top of a building with a height of h = 23.9 m. How much work did the motor of the crane do? (Assume zero energy loss in the lifting mechanism due to friction.) -112894 J moter If the duration of the lift was 1.35 minutes, then what was the average power performed by the crane?m hich of these statements about geothermal energy is false? A The hot water produced from the geothermal wells can be directly circulated through buildings or pumped through a heat exchanger that transfers the heat to a building. B The major regions of geothermal development are in the most volcanically and tectonically active regions of the world. The hot water produced from the geothermal can also be used to produce electricity in a geothermal power plant. Electricity is generated when geothermal heat produces steam that turns turbines on a generator. The energy is accessed through geothermal wells which are drilled into the Earth's crust at approximately a depth of 3 to 10 kilometers. The heat is extracted with a variety of methods but in most cases is drawn from the earth using water and steam. E Geothermal energy production is safe, cheap, and reliable. It provides consistent power generation, poses no risk to the earth, and produces no emissions. F Geothermal refers to producing…?
