Khufra works at a spring factory and he was assigned to test a certain spring, whose constant is 50 N/m, attached to a 50-kg block in an incline 30°. With the spring initially at equilibrium position, the block was pushed 0.3 meters up the incline by a 50-N external force applied parallel to the path. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.30. How much work is done by the spring (in Joules) on the block? (Please explain the solution)

There are two important isotopes of uranium— 235U and 238U ; these isotopes are nearly identical chemically but have different atomic masses. Only 235U is very useful in nuclear reactors. One of the techniques for separating them (gas diffusion) is based on the different average velocitiesvrms of uranium hexafluoride gas, UF6 .
