Answer:

since the direction of force is along south so the magnetic field must be upwards
Explanation:
Force on moving charge in magnetic field is given as

here we know this is force on proton
so we have


also we know that the velocity of charge is

now from above formula we have


since the direction of force is along south so the magnetic field must be upwards
the missing force is spring force.
The object is hanging from the spring and the spring is stretched by some distance from its equilibrium position. due to this stretch in the spring , a spring force starts acting on the object trying to regain its equilibrium position.
the spring force is given as
F = kx
where F = spring force ,k = spring constant , x = stretch in the spring.
the spring force balances the weight of the object in down direction and hence keeps the block from falling down.
Acceleration =
(change of speed) / (time for the change).
Change of speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)
= ( zero ) - (40 m/s)
= -40 m/s .
Acceleration = (-40 m/s) / (5 seconds)
= -8 m/s² .
Use this equation (v=Δx/t); plug in velocity (0.500 m/s) and the time (2.4 s), then solve for displacement… (Δx=1.2 m)
