Answer:

2.96 cm

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)

 F = k × d

Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg

So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d

                                   2.5 ∝ 1.68  --------------(1)

                                   4.4 ∝ d'      --------------(2)

From (1) & (2),     4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68

                                   d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the magnetic field will act in a direction towards me.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

When a charged particle enters a magnetic field, it is deflected. The direction of travel of the particle is deflected, but the kinetic energy of the particle is not affected. <em>The force experienced by a charged particle as it enters a magnetic field that acts perpendicular to the path of the velocity of the particle, will produce a force that is perpendicular to both the direction of travel of the particle and the direction of the magnetic field.</em> In this case, the proton moves in the y-direction, the magnetic field is in the x-direction, therefore the force experienced by the particle will be towards me.

The mass of the Earth is about 6 x 1024 kg
tia_tia [17]

Well it seems that you did not give answer choices, but that its fine since we can use newtons law of universal gravitational, Fg = GM1M2/r^2. So G is the gravitational constant, which is 6.67*10^-11, we can plug in 6*1024 for M1, and 7*1022 for M2, and 3.8*108 for r. Which then we get 1.74 * 10^8 N as the force of attraction between the Earth and the moon.
