Horizontal force pushes block up a 20.0 incline with an initial speed 12.0 m//s. a) how high up the plane does slide before coming to rest? b)how much time does it take to return to its starting position?

Explanation:

We shall apply conservation of mechanical energy .

initial kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x m x 12 x 12

= 72 m

This energy will be spent to store potential energy . if h be the height attained

potential energy = mgh , h is vertical height attined by block

= mg l sin20  where l is length up the inclined plane  

for conservation of mechanical energy

initial kinetic energy  = potential energy

72 m = mg l sin20

l = 72 /  g  sin20

= 21.5 m

deceleration on inclined plane = g sin20

= 3.35 m /s²

v = u - at

t = v - u / a

= (12 - 0) / 3.35

= 3.58 s

it will take the same time to come back . total time taken to reach original point = 2 x 3.58

= 7.16 s

the answer is neither ball has a charge.

because if they were both positively charged, they will repel each other.

if they were positively and negatively charged, they will seek.

your answer is, orbit around the nucleus
