This is a question from a practice thingy that is not graded. I couldn't really figure it out and wanted to know how to do it
Physics FRQ Extra Practice
Name:
Vertical
Velocity
Two students, student 1 and student 2, are discussing the
graph shown above, which shows the vertical component of
the velocity of the box from when it leaves the ramp to
immediately before it hits the floor. The students make the
following statements.
Student 1: This graph shows that the vertical acceleration of
the box is constant, and that the box's speed decreases for
Time the entire time shown.
Student 2: The area between the graph and the time axis is
the box's vertical displacement, but the graph is incorrect
because the positive displacement should be equal to the
negative displacement.
(c) Which underlined phrase or phrases in student 1's statement are correct, if either? If neither
phrase is correct, write "none."
(d) Which underlined phrase or phrases in student 1's statement are incorrect, if either? If neither
phrase is incorrect, write "none."
(e) Which underlined phrase or phrases in student 2's statement are correct, if either? If neither
phrase is correct, write "none."
(f) Which underlined phrase or phrases in student 2's statement are incorrect, if either? If neither
phrase is incorrect, write "none."
(9) Consider the system consisting of only the box, but not the spring or Earth. How does the energy
of the system when the spring is fully compressed compare to the energy of the system at the
moment immediately before the box hits the ground? Justify your answer.
The angle of the ramp is changed such that it is larger than 0 but less than 90 degrees, while the
height of the end of the ramp remains the same.
(h) How would the maximum height of the box compare to the original scenario in which the ramp
angle was equal to 0 ? Justify your answer.
(i) Would the slope of the graph of vertical velocity as a function of time shown above part (c) be
different for this scenario in which the box is launched from the larger angle? Justify your response.
