An M = 22.4 kg sled slides on a rough horizontal ground. The sled hits a spring when it is traveling with a horizontal velocity of vi = 12.3 m/s. The sled compresses the spring at a distance of x = 2.12 m before coming to rest. If the force constant of the spring is k = 550 N/m, find the effective coefficient of kinetic friction, μk, between the sled and the ground
The ball launcher in a pinball machine has a spring that has a force constant of 50.0 N/m. The surface on which the ball moves is inclined 10.0° with respect to the horizontal. The spring is initially compressed 5.00 cm. Find the distance along the incline that the ball will go to (from the mean position of the spring), if the friction force = 0.1N. Mass of the ball = 20 gram.
A 13.0kg stone slides down an icy, essentially frictionless, hill that is shown in the figure. At the top of the hill, the stone is moving at 1.75m/s down the hill. While the hill is frictionless, the stone experiences friction along the level, rough ground (beyond the base of the hill) all the way to a wall. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.800 and 0.300 respectively. The stone slides along the ground for 9.15m before making contact with a long spring, which has a spring constant of 25.0N/m. (“Long” in this case means that the spring is sufficiently long to stop the stone before it hits the wall.) Will the stone move again after it has been stopped by the spring?
7.43 - A 2.0-kg piece of Figure P7.43 wood slides on a curved surface Wood (Fig. P7.43). The sides of the surface are perfectly smooth, but the rough horizontal bottom is 30 m long and has a kinetic friction coefficient of 0.20 with the wood. The piece of wood starts from rest 4.0 m above the rough bottom. (a) Where will this wood eventually come to rest? (b) For the motion from the initial release until the piece of wood comes to rest, what is the total amount of work done by friction? Rough bottom
A 54 g ice cube can slide without friction up and down a 30∘ slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring at the bottom of the slope, compressing the spring 10 cm. The spring constant is 23 N/m . When the ice cube is released, what total distance will it travel up the slope before reversing direction? Δs = 43 cm The ice cube is replaced by a 54 g plastic cube whose coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20. How far will the plastic cube travel up the slope? ?????

You have been asked by your supervisors at A&L Engineering to design a roller coaster for a new theme park. Because this design is in the initial stages, you have been asked to create a track for the ride. Your coaster should have at least two peaks and two valleys, and launch from an initial height of 75 meters. Each peak and valley should represent a vertical change of at least 20 meters. In your design, you should plan for a mass between 400 and 600 kilograms. Unless otherwise stated, you can ignore the effects of friction. Following your calculations, you have been asked to describe the energy transfers detailed by these equations. For these calculations, assume that the cart will inelastically collide with a cart of equal mass at rest on a flat surface. Calculate the momentum and kinetic energy of the cart before and after an inelastic collision. In your calculations, be sure to explicitly state the equations you use and what values you will be substituting to calculate…
Small ice cubes, each of mass 7.15 g, slide down a frictionless track in a steady stream, as shown in the figure below. Starting from rest, each cube moves down through a net vertical distance of h = 1.50 m and leaves the bottom end of the track at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. At the highest point of its subsequent trajectory, the cube strikes a vertical wall and rebounds with half the speed it had upon impact. If 25 cubes strike the wall per second, what average force is exerted upon the wall? N ---direction--- 1.50 m 40.0⁰
A 108 kg crate slides down a ramp, starting from rest. The ramp is inclined at an angle of 36.4 degrees with respect to the horizontal and has a height of 1.03 m. The crate is placed on frictionless casters so that it slides down the ramp without friction. What is the final speed of the crate (in m/s) just as it reaches the bottom of the ramp? Use g = 9.81 m/s².
A 56.32-kg skier with an initial speed of vi=44.29 m/s coasts up a H=15.4-m-high rise as shown in the figure. The slope angle is theta=20.41. What is her final speed at the top? Assume the coefficient of friction between her skis and the snow is 0.17 (Hint: Find the distance traveled up the incline assuming a straight-line path as shown in the figure.) Use g = 10 m/s2.
