Answer:

Part a)

E = 0

Part b)

E = 6.77 \times 10^7 N/C

Part c)

Electric field inside the conductor is again zero

E = 0

Part d)

E = 8.52 \times 10^6 N/C

Explanation:

Part a)

conducting sphere is of radius

R = 2 cm

so electric field inside any conductor is always zero

So electric field at r = 1 cm

E = 0

Part b)

Now at r = 3 cm

By Gauss law

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}

E = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(6.77 \muC)}{0.03^2}

E = 6.77 \times 10^7 N/C

Part c)

Again when we use r = 4.50 cm

then we will have

Electric field inside the conductor is again zero

E = 0

Part d)

Now at r = 7 cm

again by Gauss law

E = \frac{kQ}{r^2}

E = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(6.77\mu C - 2.13\mu C)}{0.07^2}

E = 8.52 \times 10^6 N/C

After being released, the restoring force exerted by the spring performs

1/2 (5200 N/m) (0.090 m)² = 12.06 J

of work on the block. At the same time, the block's weight performs

- (0.260 kg) <em>g</em> (0.090 m) ≈ -0.229 J

of work. Then the total work done on the block is about

<em>W</em> ≈ 11.83 J

The block accelerates to a speed <em>v</em> such that, by the work-energy theorem,

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em>   ==>   11.83 J = 1/2 (0.260 kg) <em>v</em> ²   ==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 9.54 m/s

Past the equilibrium point, the spring no longer exerts a force on the block, and the only force acting on it is due to its weight, hence it has a downward acceleration of magnitude <em>g</em>. At its highest point, the block has zero velocity, so that

0² - <em>v</em> ² = -2<em>gy</em>

where <em>y</em> is the maximum height. Solving for <em>y</em> gives

<em>y</em> = <em>v</em> ²/(2<em>g</em>) ≈ 4.64 m

A spring with a spring constant value of 125 N/m is compressed 12.2 cm by pushing on it with a 215 g block. When the block is re
allsm [11]

Answer:

v = 2.94 m/s

Explanation:

When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.

Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.

Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means

(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2

kx^2 = mv^2

v^2 = (kx^2)/m

v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)

v = x * sqrt(k/m)

v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215)        <--- units converted to m and kg

v = 2.94 m/s
