A block of mass 0.249 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 4 975 N/m and pushed downward so that th

e spring is compressed by 0.107 m. After the block is released from rest, it travels upward and then leaves the spring. To what maximum height above the point of release does it rise? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

h = 11.67 m

Explanation:

Mass, m = 0.249 kg

Spring constant, k = 4975 N/m

Compression, x = 0.107 m

Energy stored in the spring,W, is:

W = 0.5kx²

W = 0.5*4975*0.107²

W = 28.48N·m

The potential energy is given by the formula:

PE = mgh

PE = 0.249*9.8*h

PE = 2.4402h

According to energy conservation principle, Potential Energy = spring energy.

That is, PE = W

2.4402h = 28.48

h = 28.48/2.4402

h = 11.67 m

At a location near the equator, the earth’s magnetic field is horizontal and points north. An electron is moving vertically upwa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(b) EAST

Explanation:

you can assume that the magnetic field points rightward, that is, in the positive x direction (NORTH). Furthermore, you can assume that the direction of the motion of the electron is in the positive y direction. Hence, you have:

\vec{B}=B_o\hat{i}\\\\\vec{v}=v_o\hat{j}

You use the Lorentz formula to known which is the direction of the magnetic force over the electron:

F=qv\ X\ B

which implies the cross product between the unitary vecors j and i, that is

\hat{i} \ X\ \hat{j} = -\hat{k}  (WEST)

However, the minus sign of the charge of the electron changes the direction 180°. Hence, the direction is k. That is, to the EAST
