A mass on a spring with a constant of 50 N/m is stretched 0.10 meters from its rest position. What is the potential energy stored in the spring-mass system and what is the maximum kinetic energy and velocity of the mass?

Light from a sodium lamp passes through a diffraction grating that has 1000 slits per millimeter. the interference pattern is viewed on a screen 1.000 m behind the grating. the first (m = 1) two bright yellow fringes that are visible are 0.7288 m and 0.7300 m from the central maximum. what are the wavelengths of these two fringes?

Aboat radioed a distress call to a coast guard station. at the time of the call, a vector a from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. a vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. what are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to point where the boat was found? in other words, what are the components of vector c = b - a?

A0.750 kg aluminum pan is removed from the stove and plunged into a sink filled with 10.0 kg of water at 293 k. the water temperature quickly rises to 297 k. what was the initial temperature of the aluminum pan? the specific heat of aluminum is ca = 900 j/(kgk) and water is cw = 4190 j/(kgk)
