    Solving Diffraction Grating Homework: Max Wavelength at 11°

    I got at m = 3 and m = 4 the diffraction grating would produce a maximum at 11° at visible wavelengths of 636 nm, 477 nm respectively to m = 3, m = 4.

    * * Elastic potential energy with box going up an incline.

    I would let the system have 0 kinetic energy at the top to reach its max height.

    * * Elastic potential energy with box going up an incline.

    The original question with different values was going down the incline in which all worked out. But then when teacher modified when making it go up the incline, I'm getting an error.

    * * Elastic potential energy with box going up an incline.

    Its from the Nelson Physics 12 but I think the question was modified by the teacher.

    * * Elastic potential energy with box going up an incline.

    I tried it. It still yields a negative which will result in a error through square root. Is there any error in the derivation of my equation?

    * * Elastic potential energy with box going up an incline.

    Firstly, thank you so much for replying quickly :). In the question it says "(above the completely extended spring)" meaning the the box has to move 1.3m after full extension. At the moment the box is on the spring, it is compressed 0.4m and therefore total distance becomes (1.3m + 0.4m =...
