You attach a block to the bottom end of a spring hanging vertically. You slowly let the block move down and find that it hangs a

t rest with the spring stretched by 18.0 cm. Next, you lift the block back up and release it from rest with the spring unstretched. What maximum distance does it move down

Answer:36 cm

Explanation:

Given

At Equilibrium extension a is 18 cm

suppose m is the mass of block

thus

ka=mg

k=\frac{mg}{a}

k=\frac{mg}{0.18}

Now if the block is released from un-stretched position

conserving Energy and supposing block moves x units down

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=mgx

x=\frac{2mg}{k}

x=2mg\times \frac{0.18}{mg}

x=0.36 \approx 36 cm

Answer:

Magnetic field experienced = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field around an infinite straight current-carrying wire at a distance r from the wire is given by

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = ?

I = 20 KA = 20000 A

r = 8.9 m

μ₀ = magnetic permeability = 1.257 × 10⁻⁶ T.m/A

B = (1.257 × 10⁻⁶ × 20000)/(2π×8.9) = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T

A long, straight, horizontal wire carries current toward the east. A proton moves toward the east alongside and just south of th
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

north direction.

Explanation:

The wire carries a current towards the east . The magnetic field will make circular path around the wire in clockwise direction  so at a point just south of wire , magnetic field will be into the plane of paper containing wire. If we take east as x -axes , north as y axes then out of plane will form z axes. Hence direction of magnetic field will be -  z direction .

Magnetic field can be represented as - B k

Proton is moving towards east ie in + x direction so it can be represented as follows

velocity = V i

Force F = q( V i x -B k)

= ( BqV) j or + ve j direction or along north direction

So direction of force will be along north direction.

If you find two stars with the same Right Ascension, are they necessarily close together in the sky? Why or why not?
shepuryov [24]

In space, spatial coordinates can be roughly divided into measures of Right ascension and declination. The declination is measured in degrees while the ascent is measured in hours, minutes, seconds. When you have objects in space such as those of the characteristics presented we will have to they are not necessarily close together in the sky because we can find two stars on the same right ascension but on different declination lines (Which means they can be very far apart from each other)
