A spring with a force constant of 5.0 N/m has a relaxed length of 2.59 m. When a mass is attached to the end of the spring and allowed to come to rest, the vertical length of the spring is 3.86 m. Calculate the elastic potential energy stored in the spring. Answer in units of J.

Explanation:

Given

Spring force constant

Relaxed length

mass is attached to the end of spring and allowed to come at rest with relaxed length

Potential energy stored in the spring

answer: the correct answer is 1.

explanation: there are various process in which a radioactive nuclei decays:

1) alpha decay: in this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. the mass number is reduced by 4 units.

2) electron capture: in this decay process, a parent nuclei absorbs an electron and gets converted into a neutron. simply, a proton and an electron combines together to form a neutron. mass number does not change in this process.

3) gamma ray emission: it is a decay process in which an unstable nuclei gives excess energy by a spontaneous electromagnetic process. this decay releases . this process does not change the mass number.

4) positron emission: it is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron neutrino. this is also known as -decay. in this the mass number remains same.

from the above information, we see that only alpha-decay is producing a change in the mass number of the nucleus.
