Explanation:
By Hooke's Law, Fe = kx.
Since Fe = 1.6N and x = 9.2cm - 8cm = 1.2cm,
k = Fe/x = 1.6N/1.2cm = 1.33N/cm.
Answer:
-1486 KJ
Explanation:
The work done by an electric field on a charged body is:
W = ΔV * q
where ΔV = change in voltage
q = total charge
The total charge of Avogadro's number of electrons is:
6.0221409 * 10^(23) * -1.6023 * 10^(-19) = -9.65 * 10^(4)
The change in voltage, ΔV, is:
9.20 - (6.90) = 15.4
Therefore, the work done is:
W = -9.65 * 10^(4) * 15.4 = -1.486 * 10^6 J = -1486 KJ
The negative sign means that the motion of the electrons is opposite the electrostatic force.
