Chapter 6, Problem 15PCE

A certain spring has a force constant k. (a) If two such identical springs are connected in parallel to each other as shown in part (a) of Figure 6-36, does the resulting double spring have an effective force constant that is greater than, less than, or equal to k? Explain. (b) If two of the original springs are connected as shown in part (b) of Figure 6-36, does the resulting double spring have an effective force constant that is greater than less than or equal to k? Explain.

An electromagnetic wave is traveling through vacuum in the positive x direction. Its electric field vector is given by E=E0sin⁡(kx−ωt)j^,where j^ is the unit vector in the y direction. If B0 is the amplitude of the magnetic field vector, find the complete expression for the magnetic field vector B→ of the wave. What is the Poynting vector S(x,t), that is, the power per unit area associated with the electromagnetic wave described in the problem introduction? Give your answer in terms of some or all of the variables E0, B0, k, x, ω, t, and μ0. Specify the direction of the Poynting vector using the unit vectors i^, j^, and k^ as appropriate.
