Elias stretches a rubber band and let's it go. The rubber band flies across the room. Elias says this demonstrates the transform

ation of kinetic energy to elastic potential energy. Is Elias correct? Explain.

Answer:

This is not correct, actually it shows the transformation of elastic potential energy into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

We will explain this with and example and some numerical values to demostrate this energy transformation.

The elastic band has a behavior similar to a spring which is compressed and when released it transforms its energy from elastic to kinetic, we're going to choose a system which consists of a body 1 [kg], which is compressed against a spring with a constant of 20[kN/m], the maximum point where it is compressed is taken as the reference point where the energy potential is zero. When the package is released determine the maximum height the package reaches when released. The spring has been compressed 50 [mm].

In the attached image we can see a sketch of the mass and the spring, and the conditions of the block at maximum height.

The energy when we compress the spring will be:

U_{1-2} =\frac{1}{2} *k*dx\\where\\k=spring constant [kN/m]\\dx=spring change [m]

The energy when the block is in the highest position will be defined only by the potential energy with respect to the reference point. In this point the velocity is zero.

U_{1-2} =\frac{1}{2} *(20000)*(50*10^-3)\\U_{1-2}= 500[J]\\Elastic energy = potential energy\\U_{1-2}=Ep\\Ep=m*g*h\\500 = 1*9.81*h\\h= 50 [m]

We can see that the mass goes 50 [m] in the vertical direction, as a result of the transformation of elasticity energy into potential.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) DOWN direction,  b)  directed INTO THE SCREEN, c)    F = 0

Explanation:

The direction of the force is

for electric force

           F = q E

where we assume a positive test charge, for which the force has the direction of the electric field.

For a magnetic field

in this case the direction of the force is given by the right hand rule.

For a positive test charge, the thumb points in the direction of velocity, the other fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, and the palm gives the direction of force for a positive charge.

           F = q v x B

Let us apply these considerations to our case.

a) negative charge moving to the left

in a magnetic field points away from the screen

In this case the thumb goes to the left, the fingers extended outwards and the palm points upwards, but since the charge is negative the force has a DOWN direction.

b) negative charge moves to the left

in electric field it points off the screen.

The outside is in the direction of the electric field and since the charge is negative, the force is directed INTO THE SCREEN

c) positive charge moves down

in magnetic field points up

in this case the velocity and the field have the same direction so the vector product of them is zero

       F = q v  B sin 0

       F = 0
