The current in an inductor when energy is stored. Please help!
Homework Statement
What's the current in a 15mH inductor when the stored energy is 42μJ
Homework Equations
E = 1/2 L i^2
The Attempt at a Solution
.000042J = (.5)(.015H)(i^2)
.000042J = (.0075)(i^2)
.0056 =...

The spring in the figure has a spring constant of 1000 N/m. It is compressed 13.0 cm, then launches a 200 g block. The horizontal surface is frictionless, but the block's coefficient of kinetic friction on the incline is 0.220. What distance does the block sail through the...
Whoops! I guess I was so excited to have finally figured it out that I wrote the equation wrong lol.
To verify
mg(4+Xmax)sinθ=1/2k(Xmax)^2
So...
1/2k(Xmax)^2 - mgsinθ(Xmax) - mg4sinθ = 0
And then use quadratic equation to solve for Xmax?
