Question
Young Hector launches a 200 gram block uphill on a frictionless ramp which is tilted at 30 degrees with the horizontal, as shown
in the Figure. At the instant of its launch, the block is moving uphill at 4.00 m/s. Hector observes as the block travels a distance
of 50.0 cm uphill on the ramp. In the following, consider the period of time during which the block moves uphill through the 50.0
cm distance shown in the Figure. For simplicity, assume that g = 9.80 m/2.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

Mass of the block is m=200 g=200×10-3 kg

Angle of inclination of the block is θ=30°

Initial speed of the block is vi=4.00 m/s

Final speed of the block is vf

Distance along the ramp is d=50.0 cm=0.500 m
