Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionCALC A clever engineer designs a 'sprong' that obeys the force law Fx=−q(x−xeq)³ , where xeq is the equilibrium position of the end of the sprong and q is the sprong constant. For simplicity, we'll let xeq=0 m .Then Fx=−qx³. b. Find an expression for the potential energy of a stretched or compressed sprong.
