A toy uses a spring to shoot an arrow with a suction cup on the end. The toy shoots a 34.2 g arrow and gives it a speed of 5.50 m/s. If the efficiency of the toy is 69.0%, how much elastic potential energy was stored in the spring? Show all your work.

Explanation:

When spring is used to shoot an arrow, the Elastic Potential Energy is converted into Kinetic Energy.

The efficiency of Spring Toy = 69%

According to Conservation of Energy :

P. E. = K. E.

NOW,

69% of P. E. = m * v^2 / 2

[tex]P.E. = \frac{0.0342 \times 5.5 \times 5.5}{2 \times 0.69} = 0.75J[/tex]
