Answer:
3.95 m
Explanation:
m = 1 kg, h = 100 m, k = 125 N/m
Let the spring is compressed by y.
Use the conservation of energy
potential energy of the mass is equal to the energy stored in the spring
m x g x h = 1/2 x ky^2
1 x 9.8 x 100 = 0.5 x 125 x y^2
y^2 = 15.68
y = 3.95 m
Answer:
1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
Explanation:
Let us arrange the charges in the ascending order and round them off as follows :-
1.53 x 10⁻¹⁹ C → 1.6x 10⁻¹⁹ C
3.26 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
4.66 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
5.09 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 4.8 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
6.39 x 10⁻¹⁹C → 6.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
The rounding off has been made to facilitate easy calculation to come to a conclusion and to accommodate error in measurement.
Here we observe that
2 nd charge is almost twice the first charge
3 rd and 4 th charges are almost 3 times the first charge
5 th charge is almost 4 times the first charge.
This result implies that 2 nd to 5 th charges are made by combination of the first charge ie if we take e as first charge , 2nd to 5 th charges can be written as 2e, 3e ,3e and 4e. Hence e is the minimum charge existing in nature and on electron this minimum charge of 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C exists.
