compress or stretch a spring over a displacement, x
from the position of equilibrium.
Note:
Elastic potential energy, Ep = ½ Fx
Force to extend a spring increases uniformly from zero
with the extention of the spring. Therefore, to calculate
work done in stretching a spring, we use average value
of
force, that is:
Average force = (0 + F)/2 = ½ F

• The unit of dose rate measurement for
background radiation is microSievert/hour (μSv /
