Answer:

29.4 N/m

0.1  

Explanation:

a) From the restoring Force we know that :  

F_r = —k*x  

the gravitational force :  

F_g=mg  

Where:

F_r is the restoring force .

F_g is the gravitational force

g is the acceleration of gravity

k is the constant force  

xi , x2 are the displacement made by the two masses.

Givens:

<em>m1 = 1.29 kg</em>

<em>m2 = 0.3 kg  </em>

<em>x1   = -0.75 m  </em>

<em>x2 = -0.2 m </em>

<em>g   = 9.8 m/s^2  </em>

Plugging known information to get :

F_r =F_g

-k*x1 + k*x2=m1*g-m2*g

k=29.4 N/m

b) To get the unloaded length 1:  

l=x1-(F_1/k)

Givens:

m1 = 1.95kg , x1 = —0.75m  

Plugging known infromation to get :

l= x1 — (F_1/k)  

= 0.1

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Magnetic field will be ZERO at the given position

Explanation:

As we know that the magnetic field due to moving charge is given as

B = \frac{\mu_0 qv sin\theta}{4\pi r^2}

so here we know that for the direction of magnetic field we will use

\hat B = \hat v \times \hat r

so we have

\hat B = \hat i \times (\hat i + 0\hat j + 0\hat k)

so magnetic field must be ZERO

So whenever charge is moving along the same direction where the position vector is given then magnetic field will be zero
