A 0.59-kg block is hung from and stretches a spring that is attached to the ceiling. A second block is attached to the first one

, and the amount that the spring stretches from its unstretched length triples. What is the mass of the second block?

Answer: 1.77kg

Explanation:

Using the concept or hooke's law, the force (F) applied to a string is directly proportional its extension (e)

F=ke

K is the elastic constant

If the mass applied initially is 0.59kg i.e 5.9N force, we have

5.9=ke... (1)

If a second block is attached let's say 'm', its force will be 10m, and the extension will become 3e

10m = 3ke ... (2)

Dividing eqn 1 by 2,

5.9/10m = ke/3ke

5.9/10m = 1/3

10m = 5.9×3

m = 5.9×3/10

m = 1.77kg

In the simulation above, as the projectile travels upward, how does the vertical velocity change? Question 9 options:
enot [183]

Answer:

Vertical velocity decreases.

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a projectile ball, which consists of two independent motions:

- a horizontal motion, with constant velocity

- a vertical motion, with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground

In the vertical motion, there is a constant acceleration directed downward: this means that the vertical velocity decreases as the ball goes higher. In fact, it decreases following the equation

v(t)=v_0 -gt

And it decreases until the ball reaches its maximum height, then it starts increasing again.

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on a moving charge is given by the following relation

F = q ( v x B )

for proton

q = e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = e ( vi x Bk )

= Bev - j

= - Bevj

The direction of force is along negative of y axis or -y - axis.

for electron

q = - e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = - e ( vi x Bk )

= - Bev - j

=  Bevj

The direction of force is along positive  of y axis or + y - axis.
