An ideal spring is mounted horizontally, with its left end fixed. The force constant of the spring is 170 N/m. A glider of mass
1.2 kg is attached to the free end of the spring. The glider is pulled toward the right along a frictionless air track, and then released. Now the glider is moving in simple harmonic motion with amplitude 0.045 m. The motion is horizontal (one-dimensional).
Suddenly, Slimer holding an apple flies in and approaches the glider. Slimer drops the apple vertically onto the glider from a very small height. The apple sticks to the glider. The mass of the apple is 0.18 kg.
Recall that the total mechanical energy is E = 1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 kx^2 = 1/2 kA^2 = constant
(a) Calculate the new amplitude of the motion of the glider with apple if the apple is dropped at the moment when the glider passes through its equilibrium position, x = 0 m.
Hints: The total energy of the glider just before the collision is E = 1/2mglider v^2 = 1/2KA^2
The apple sticks to the glider in a completely inelastic collision. The glider is now moving with the apple but at a lower speed. The linear momentum is conserved. Write a corresponding equation.
Also, assume that the collision is very short, so just before the collision the glider is at x = 0 m, and just after the collision the glider and apple are still at x = 0 m. Therefore, the total energy of the glider just after the collision is Enew = 1/2mglider + applev^2new = 1/2kA^2new
(b) Calculate the period of the motion of the glider and the period of the motion of the glider with apple.
Hint: it's a very simple question.

Answer:
(A). The current in the circuit is 19.25 mA.
(B). The store energy in the inductor is 7.04 μJ.
Explanation:
Given that,
Voltage = 8.2 V
Inductor = 38 mH
Resistance = 150 Ω
Time t = 0.110 ms
The battery has negligible internal resistance, so that the total resistance in the circuit is 150 ohms. Then use this equation for current at time t in terms of inductance
We need to calculate the current
Using formula of current
Put the value into the formula
(B). We need to calculate the store energy in the inductor
Using formula of energy
Put the value into the formula
