Answer:
The ball will be attracted to the negatively charged plate. It'll touch and pick up some electrons from the plate so that the ball becomes negatively charged. Immediately the ball is repelled by the negative plate and is attracted to the positive plate. The ball gives up electrons to the positive plate so that it is positively charged and suddenly attracts to the negative plate again, flies over to it and picks up enough electrons to be repulsed by negative plate and again to the positive plate and that continues.
Answer:
160N/m
Explanation:
According to Hooke's law which states that the extension of an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically,
F = ke where
F is the applied force
k is the spring constant
e is the extension
From the formula k = F/e
Since the body accelerates when the block is released, F = ma according to Newton's second law of motion.
The spring constant k = ma/e where
m is the mass of the block = 0.4kg
a is the acceleration = 8.0m/s²
e is the extension of the spring = 2.0cm = 0.02m
K = 0.4×8/0.02
K = 3.2/0.02
K = 160N/m
The spring constant of the spring is therefore 160N/m
It might be c I'm not sure either. Hope I helped
0.1 m/s^2 (final velocity-initial velocity) and then divide with the time taken
