### Problem StatementA box slides from rest down a frictionless ramp inclined at \(40.0^\circ\) with respect to the horizontal and is stopped at the bottom of the ramp by a spring with a spring constant of \(k = 1.50 \times 10^3\) N/m. If the box has a mass of 12.0 kg and slides 3.00 m from the point of release to the point where it comes to rest against the spring, determine the compression of the spring when the box comes to rest.**Enter your answer in meters:** \_\_\_\_### Diagram Explanation- **Inclined Plane:** A ramp inclined at an angle of \(40.0^\circ\) relative to the horizontal surface.- **Point of Release:** The position where the box starts sliding down the ramp from rest.- **Compression of Spring:** The spring is located at the bottom of the ramp and compresses as the box comes to a stop. **Visual Elements:**- **Ramp and Spring:** The diagram shows a sloped surface with a box sliding downward. At the end of the slope, there is a spring illustrated by a coiled shape that compresses as the box makes contact.- **Arrows:** Indicators highlighting the motion of the box down the ramp and the resulting compression of the spring.The problem involves determining how much the spring compresses, utilizing the concepts of energy conservation and kinematics.

M d H h A shipping company designed a new system to fill their delivery trucks. They are using a spring of stiffness coefficient k-2000 N/m to accelerate packages of mass m=3.5 kg up a ramp of length d=8 m, has kinetic friction coefficient u=0.5, and makes an angle of 0=45° above the horizontal. a) If the spring is compressed a distance x=0.7 m prior to launching a package, how much energy does the package have before launching up the ramp? b) Does the package lose any energy as it goes up the ramp? If so, how much? If not, why? c) At what speed will the package leave the ramp? d) If end of the ramp is H=5.66 m above the ground and the truck's bed is h=1.2 m above the ground, at what distance, L, should the truck park from the end of the ramp so the packages land in its bed?
