Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
Q4. As shown in the image below, a 112-kg crate starts sliding down the inclined plane from rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the inclined plane is \( \mu_k = 0.22 \). Take \( g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).
**Diagram Description:**
- The diagram illustrates a crate on an inclined plane.
- The inclined plane has an angle of \( 45^\circ \) with the horizontal.
- A spring is fixed at the bottom of the incline.
- The spring constant is \( k = 2 \, \text{kN/m} \).
- The inclined plane is 10 meters long.
- The crate is placed at the top of the incline and begins to slide down.
- Variable \( x \) represents the compression of the spring when the crate reaches the bottom.
**Questions:**
1. Apply the principle of work and energy to determine the speed (in the unit of m/s) when the crate reaches the bottom of the inclined plane.

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement for Educational Website:**
**Q4.** For this part of the problem, use the same main problem statement, numbers, and image in Q4 (1).
**(2)** If the spring is initially unstretched, and its spring constant is given in the image, determine the compression of the spring \(x\) when the crate momentarily stops. _Hint:_ when the crate compresses the spring, the weight and the frictional force are still doing work. Your answer must include two places after the decimal point and proper units.
**Solution Box:**
The solution is displayed in a box and shows the numerical answer as:
```
