7.69 ⚫A 0.500 kg block, attached to a spring with length 0.60 m and force constant 40.0 N/m, is at rest with the back of the block at point A on a frictionless, horizontal air table (Fig. P7.69). The mass of the spring is negligible. You move the block to the right along the surface by pulling with a constant 20.0 N horizontal force. (a) What is the block's speed when the back of the block reaches point B, which is 0.25 m to the right of point A? (b) When the back of the block reaches point B, you let go of the block. In the subsequent motion, how close does the block get to the wall where the left end of the spring is attached? Figure P7.69 F= 20.0 N k = 40.0 N/m m = 0.500 kg www wwww 0.60 m +0.25 m A B

A student working on a school project modeled a trampoline as a spring obeying Hookes law and measured the spring constant of a certain trampoline as 4617 N/m.

Hanging from the ceiling over a baby bed, well out of baby’s reach, is a string with plastic shapes, as shown here. The string is taut (there is no slack), as shown by the straight segments. Each plastic shape has the same mass m , and they are equally spaced by a distance d , as shown. The angles labeled describe the angle formed by the end of the string and the ceiling at each end. The center length of sting is horizontal. The remaining two segments each form an angle with the horizontal, labeled . Let T1 be the tension in the leftmost section of the string, T2 , be the tension in the section adjacent to it, and T3 be the tension in the horizontal segment. (a) Find an equation for the tension in each section of the string in terms of the variables m,g , and . (b) Find the angle in terms of the angle .

An object of mass m is suspended from the top of a cart by a string of length L as in Figure P5.88a. The cart and object are initially moving to the right at a constant speed 0. The cart comes to rest after colliding and sticking to a bumper, as in Figure P5.88b, and the suspended object swings through an angle . (a) Show that the initial speed is 0=2gL(1cos). (b) If L = 1.20 m and = 35.0, find the initial speed of the cart (Hint: The force exerted by the string on the object docs no work on the object.) Figure P5.88a
Check Your Understanding Suppose that Balto in Example 2.10 leaves the game to attend to more important matter, but Astro Clifford and Dug continue playing. Astro and Clifford’s pull on the toy does not change, but Dug rims around and bites on the toy in a different place. With how big a force and in what direction must Dug pull on the toy now to balance out the combined pulls from Clifford and Astro? Illustrate this situation by drawing a vector diagram indicating all forces involved.

A makeshift sign hangs by a wire that is extended over an ideal pulley and is wrapped around a large potted plant on the roof as shown in Figure P6.10. When first set up by the shopkeeper on a sunny and dry day, the sign and the pot are in equilibrium. Is it possible that the sign falls to the ground during a rainstorm while still remaining connected to the pot? What would have to be true for that to be possible? FIGURE P6.10 Problems 10 and 11.
