The potential energy of the spring is 6.75 J
The elastic potential energy stored in the spring is given by the equation:
where;
k is the spring constant
x is the compression/stretching of the string
In this problem, we have the spring as follows:
k = 150 N/m is the spring constant
x = 0.3 m is the compression
Substituting in the equation, we get
Therefore. the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is 6.75J .

The mass of the ion is 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg
<u>Explanation:</u>
The electrical energy given to the ion Vq will be changed into kinetic energy
As the ion moves with velocity v in a magnetic field B then the magnetic Lorentz force Bqv will be balanced by centrifugal force .
So,
and
Right from these eliminating v, we can derive
On substituting the value, we get:
m = 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg.
