The motion of a crate can be divided into two stages. Stage 1 (A-B): The crate with mass m = 4 kg is compressed against a massless spring with a spring constant (stiffness) k = 256 N/m to point A (0.5 m from its equilibrium position O), then released from rest. The crate moves along a horizontal frictionless surface, from A to B, 1 m above the reference level of PEg. Stage 2 (B-C): The crate slides down a rough curved surface until it reaches its bottom at point C with a speed vc = 5 m/s. Calculate the work done on the crate in stage 2 by the force of kinetic friction. Take g = 10 m/s². VA 0 XA h = 1 m = 5 m/s O -22 J O - 11 J -5 J O - 44 J - 33J O -0.5 m PE = 0- Vc

A 3.00 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0370 m. The spring has force constant 900 N/m. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is 0.410. The block and spring are released from rest and the block slides along the floor.

Blocks 1 and 2, with masses m₁ and m2, are placed on a frictionless, horizontal table with an ideal spring between then.

You attach your 4.58 - kg Physics for Engineers book to a horizontal spring (k = 549 N/m). You then pull the book to a distance of 6.7 cm and released it from rest. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between your book and the surface is 0.31, calculate the block's speed as it passes through its original position.

It slides on a horizontal track from B to C where it compresses a spring a distance of 85.2 cm before stopping.

A box is pressed against a horizontal spring, compressing the spring from its relaxed length. The box is then released and the spring launches the box horizontally along a track that ends in a ramp, as shown above. The box has enough speed to leave the ramp, and the box reaches a maximum vertical height above the floor. Assume there is negligible friction between the box and the track and air resistance is negligible. K = spring constant of spring X = distance the spring is compressed M = mass box Theta = angle of ramp from horizontal H = maximum height reached by box The scenario is repeated using a different box with a greater mass. The spring is compressed the same distance x. Indicate how h in this second scenario compares to h in the original scenario, and explain why without mathematically deriving a relation for h. Students derive an equation for h in the original scenario, h= (sin2theta)kx2/2Mg, which may or may not be correct. Is this equation consistent with your claim…
