So, the recovery force of the spring is <u>2 N in the opposite direction of the pull</u>.

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! Here, I will help you about the spring recovery force. <u>The restoring force is the force that opposes the direction of the initial pull of the spring (either when the spring is pulled horizontally or vertically)</u>. The restoring force is strongly influenced by the type of spring (through the spring constant) and the length of the strain that occurs. Negative values in spring restoring force only indicate direction, not value. The equation that applies is as follows:

If the spring is pulled horizontally

\boxed{\sf{\bold{F = - k \times \Delta x}}}

With the following condition :

  • F = recovery force (N)
  • k = spring constant (N/m)
  • \sf{\Delta x} = horizontal length change (m)

If the spring is pulled vertically

\boxed{\sf{\bold{F = - k \times \Delta y}}}

With the following condition :

  • F = recovery force (N)
  • k = spring constant (N/m)
  • \sf{\Delta y} = vertical length change (m)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

  • Assume the spring is pulled horizontally
  • k = spring constant = 4 N/m
  • \sf{\Delta x} = horizontal length change = 0.5 m

What was asked :

  • F = recovery force = ... N

Step by step :

\sf{F = - k \times \Delta x}

\sf{F = - 4 \times 0.5}

\boxed{\sf{F = -2 \: N}}

<h3>Conclusion :</h3>

So, the recovery force of the spring is 2 N in the opposite direction of the pull.

You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle
AlekseyPX

Answer:

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}

now we have

- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we have

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

In a science fiction story, a microscopic black hole is given an enormous positive charge by firing an un-neutralized ion drive
Olegator [25]

Answer: distance d = 4.73e10m

Explanation: Suppose the charge on the black hole is 5740 C which is a positive charge.

Using electric potential V formula:

V = kq / d

Where K = 9.05×10^9Nm^2/C

And e = 1.6×10^-19C

But you don't need to substitute it.

1090 V = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 5740C /d

Make d the subject of formula

d = 4.73e10 m
