Tree Swing An unusual pendulum is made by fixing a string to a horizontal 2. cylinder of radius R, wrapping the string several times around the cylinder, and then tying a mass m to the loose end. In equilibrium the mass hangs a distance lo vertically below the edge of the cylinder. Find the potential energy if the pendulum has swung angle from the vertical. Show that for small angles, it can be written in the Hooke's law form U = k. Comment on the value of k. SS to an

spherical R a vertical axis on frictionless bearings (see the figure above). A massless cord passes around the equator of the shell, over a pulley of rotational inertia I and radius r, and is attached to a small object of mass m. There is no friction on the pulley's axle; the cord does not slip on the pulley. What is the speed of the object when it has fallen a distance d after being released from rest? Use energy considerations. NOTE: Eoncono au ome of and
Problem 4 In the Figure below, a 2.5 kg block slides head on into a spring with a spring constant of 320 N/m. When the block stops it has compressed the spring by 7.5 cm. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is 0.25. While the block is in contact with the spring and being brought to rest, what are (a) the work done by the spring force, and (b) the increase in thermal energy of the block-floor system? (c) What is the block's speed just as the block reaches the spring? 320 N/m 2.5 kg

A mass attached to a spring and allowed to oscillate horizontally on a tabletop is subject to both the restoring force of the spring and the force of friction. a) Which of these forces does work? If they do work, is it always positive, always negative, or does the sign vary? b) An energy is defined for only one of these two forces. Which is it, and why?
