1. A small block, with a mass of 1.5 kg, starts from rest at the top of the apparatus shown above. It then slides without friction down the incline, around the loop and then onto the final level section on the right. It then collides with a spring which momentarily brings the block to a stop. The maximum height of the incline is 2.5 m, the radius of the loop is 0.9 m and the spring constant is 90 N/m. a) Find the initial potential energy of the block. b) Find the velocity of the block at the top of the loop. c) Find the velocity of the block after it goes around the loop, on the flat section of the path. d) How much will the block compress the spring before momentarily coming to a stop?

1. A 5.00-kg block is set into motion up an inclined plane with an initial speed of v; = 8.00 m/s. The block comes to rest after traveling 3.00 m along the plane, which is inclined at an angle of 30.0° to the horizontal.

Q4. A ball of mass m attached to one end of a thin, light, inextensible string moves with speed vo in a circle of radius ro in free space. Calculate the work required to reduce the radius from rotor by pulling the other end of the string through a smooth tube that is perpendicular to the plane of the circle. Express the result in terms of m, vo, ro and r. (HINTS: 1) Tension in the string is a central force and therefore the angular momentum is conserved 2) If radius changes then the speed changes, hence the KE.
