A new event has been proposed for the next Winter Olympics. As seen in the figure below, an athlete will sprint 100 m, starting from rest, then leap on a 25.0 kg bobsled. The person and bobsled will then slide down a 50.0 m long ice-covered (frictionless) ramp, sloped at 20.0°, and into a spring with a carefully calibrated spring constant of 2000.0 N/m. The athlete who compresses the spring the farthest wins the gold medal. Lisa, whose mass is 40.0 kg, has been training for this event. She can reach a maximum speed of 12.0 m/s in the 100 m dash. How far will Lisa compress the spring? 20°

In this question you will use an energy approach to determine how the mass of a spring affects its motion. Normally we assume the spring has zero mass. But if we realize real springs have mass we can find the contribution to the kinetic energy of the system due to the motion of the spring. What makes this hard is that different parts of the spring move at different velocities. So, we must use a little calculus to find the result.Consider a vertical spring of mass m that has a mass M attached at its end. Let the position of the mass at the end of the spring relative to the point of attachment be given by Y and its velocity be given by V. a) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring at the point of attachment? b) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring right next to the moving mass? c) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring that is exactly halfway between the top and the bottom? d) Now let the mass of the spring be m and…

A rubber ball, with a mass of 40.0 grams is dropped from rest from a height of 1.20 m above the floor. It hits the floor, and then reaches a maximum height of 80.0 cm when it comes back up again. In this problem, use g = 10.0 m/s2. (a) The collision with the floor causes some mechanical energy to be lost (this energy generally ends up as thermal energy). How much mechanical energy is lost in this case? (b) What is the ball's speed, just as it leaves the floor on its way up? m/s (c) What is the magnitude of the impulse experienced by the ball for the entire time it is in contact with the floor? kg • m/s

A mouse is on a crazy roller coaster which has five distinct phases. The mouse in his roller coaster car has a mass of 6 kg. The mouse starts the coaster by being pulled back 0.2 m into a spring with a spring constant of 1890 N/m. How much elastic potential energy does the mouse have as he starts his ride? After the spring is released, the mouse travels over the first hill, effectively coming to rest at the top. Calculate the height of the first hill? He then speeds into a valley. At the bottom of the valley 3 J of energy is lost due to friction. What is his total remaining energy after he travels through the valley? The mouse then travels over a 0.10 m hill. How fast is the mouse traveling over the hill at point D? The mouse finally makes it to the final phase of the ride, where he will race along at ground level. How fast is he traveling at point E?
