Block on slope with spring at bottom HELP

AI Thread Summary
A spring with a spring constant of 416 N/m is compressed 11 cm at the bottom of a 25-degree frictionless incline, with a 1.3 kg mass placed against it. The problem requires calculating the distance the mass travels up the incline after the spring is released. Assistance is typically provided when an attempt to solve the problem is demonstrated. The original poster later indicated they resolved the issue while helping a friend with an online quiz. Understanding the physics of spring compression and motion on an incline is crucial for solving similar problems.

A spring (k= 416 N/m) is at the bottom of a 25 degree frictionless inclined plane. The spring is compressed 11 cm and a 1.3 kg mass is placed against the spring. The spring is released. Calculate the distance up the incline that the mass travels before coming to a stop for the first time.

thats the Q that i need help with... its a quiz question so help ASAP would b nice.

Thanks in advance

Help is available when you show an attempt to do the problem. We do not do the problems for you.
 
nm i got it, thanks for looking.. was helping a friend do his online quiz

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'

The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
