0.36 J of work is done in stretching the spring from 15 cm to 18 cm.

To find the correct answer, we need to know about the work done to strech a string.

<h3>What is the work required to strech a string?</h3>
  • Mathematically, the work done to strech a string is given as 1/2 ×K×x².
  • K is the spring constant.
<h3>What will be the spring constant, if 40N force is required to hold a 10 cm to 15 cm streched spring?</h3>
  • The force experienced by a streched spring is given as Kx. x is the length of the spring streched from its natural length.
  • Then K = Force / x.
  • Here x = 15 - 10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m
  • K = 40/0.05 = 800N/m.
<h3>What will be the work required to strech that spring from 15 cm to 18 cm?</h3>
  • Work done = 1/2×k×x²
  • Here x= 18-15=3cm or 0.03 m
  • So, W= 1/2×800×0.03² = 0.36 J.

Thus, we can conclude that the work done is 0.36 J.

Newton’s 2nd law states that Force is equal to the product of mass (m) and acceleration (a):

F = m a                                  ---> 1

While in magnetic forces, force can also be expressed as:

F = q v B                               ---> 2

where,

q = total charge

v = velocity = 45 cm / s = 0.45 m / s

B = the magnetic field = 85 T

First we solve for the total charge, q:

q = 3.8 × 10^-23 g (1 mol / 23 g) (6.022 × 10^23 electrons / mol) (1.602 × 10^-19 C / electron)

q = 1.594 × 10^-19 C

 

We equate equations 1 and 2 then solve for acceleration a:

m a = q v B

a = q v B / m

a = [1.594 × 10^-19 C * 0.45 m / s * 85 T] / 3.8 × 10-26 kg

a = 160,437,862.2 m/s^2

 

Therefore the maximum acceleration of Na ions is about 160 × 10^6 m/s^2.

Answer: Cognitive

Explanation:

Cognition can be defined as the process of obtaining the knowledge and learning through the experience, senses and thought. Many psychologists can have similar experiences of learning the psychological framework of the society or at the individual level. Thus this can be said that the cognitive psychologist may have similar interests.
