(Problem 13.1.1) Escape! . Vc а) A projectile on a planet of radius Rand mass M is sent directly upward with a speed v. Using energy conservation, find the critical initial speed v, such that as the projectile reaches an infinite range it has exactly zero m. final speed, and therefore does not return. This critical velocity as defined is called the escape velocity. Neglect atmospheric effects and planetary rotation. R M b) Apply your expression for the escape velocity to our own planet Earth (M=6x1024kg, R=6,378km, G= 6.67408x10-11m³/kg s²). Compare the escape velocity to the speed of sound, vs = 343 m/s. c) Consider what radius the Earth would need to be such that the escape velocity is exactly the speed of light, c = 3x10® m/s.

3. If a block of mass m starts from rest at position 3 as shown below, with the spring of stiffness k compressed a distance Ax3, and slides across the frictionless plane X=0 what is its speed at position 2? (Hint: use conservation of energy.) Note: This problem gives no numbers, so don't put in numbers to do this problem. Of course you can on your scratch paper, if you want to, but for the work on this test, you need to leave it as an algebraic problem. а. V2 = b. If the block continues to slide up the frictionless incline, what is the height, h, at which it stops before sliding back down? h =
