Write in the blank whether the sentence is simple or compound. _____ Valery ran her fingers through her long, straight hair.

The compound bow in the previous problem requires $152 \mathrm{~J}$ of work to draw the string back to $x=0.540 \mathrm{~m}$, at which point the archer need only exert $250 \mathrm{~N}$ of force to hold the string in place. (a) Suppose a simple bow is used instead of a compound bow. What should its force constant $k$ (in $\mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ ) be so that it requires the same amount of work to draw the string a distance of $x=0.540 \mathrm{~m}$ ? Assume the simple bow behaves the same as an ideal spring. (b) How much force must the archer exert to draw the simple bow to $x=0.540 \mathrm{~m}$ ? Compare this to the $250-\mathrm{N}$ force required by the compound bow.
