An object that is 0.5 m above the ground has the same amount of potential energy as a spring that is stretched 0.5 m. Each distance is then doubled.

How will the potential energies of the object and the spring compare after the distances are doubled?

A.) The gravitational potential energy of the object will be two times greater than the elastic potential energy of the spring.

B.) The elastic potential energy of the spring will be four times greater than the gravitational potential energy of the object.

C.) The elastic potential energy of the spring will be two times greater than the gravitational potential energy of the object.

D.) The potential energies will remain equal to one another.

(a) assume the equation x = at^3 + bt describes the motion of a particular object, with x having the dimension of length and t having the dimension of time. determine the dimensions of the constants a and b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.) (b) determine the dimensions of the derivative dx/dt = 3at^2 + b. (use the following as necessary: l and t, where l is the unit of length and t is the unit of time.)
