Question 507

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-A simple exercise machine can be constructed by mounting a stiff spring securely to a wall and attaching a "T" handle to the free end of the spring. The arms can be exercised simply by pulling the "T" handle towards the torso. For a particular spring, the stretch distance is related to the work exerted by the equation x=2W85000x = \sqrt { \frac { 2 W } { 85000 } } , where WW is the work exerted in joules and xx is the stretch distance in cm\mathrm { cm } . How far will you stretch the spring if you exert 638 joules of work? Round your answer to three decimal places.


A) 0.015 cm0.015 \mathrm {~cm}
B) 0.087 cm0.087 \mathrm {~cm}
C) 0.130 cm0.130 \mathrm {~cm}
D) 0.123 cm0.123 \mathrm {~cm}
