Answer:
The new height the ball will reach = (1/4) of the initial height it reached.
Explanation:
The energy stored in any spring material is given as (1/2)kx²
This energy is converted to potential energy, mgH, of the ball at its maximum height.
If the initial height reached is H
And the initial compression of the spring = x
So, mgH = (1/2)kx²
H = kx²/2mg
The new compression, x₁ = x/2
New energy of loaded spring = (1/2)kx₁²
And the new potential energy = mgH₁
mgH₁ = (1/2)kx₁²
But x₁ = x/2
mgH₁ = (1/2)k(x/2)² = kx²/8
H₁ = kx²/8mg = H/4 (provided all the other parameters stay constant)
Answer: A capacitor.
Explanation:
The capacitor is a passive element that is used in electronics to store electrical energy maintaining an electrical field. The simpler case of a capacitor is the parallel plates capacitor.
It consists of two parallel metal plates separated by a distance D, in this case, the air between the plates works as a dielectric, as the plates do not touch each other and are separated by a dielectric, the charge is stored in the surface plates.
There are a lot of other types of capacitors, the most used in actuality may be the cylindrical one, where instead of parallel plates, it uses two concentric cylinders, and the space between the cylinders is filled with a dielectric/insulator.
Answer: They create calcuim chloride, CaCl2
The presence of mass makes gravity. Doesn't matter whether it's a planet, a black hole, a puppy, or a speck of dust.
