The blockspring system is initially in the equilibrium configuration. A second block of mass m2 = 3.00 kg is then pushed against the first block, compressing the spring by x = 15.0 cm as in Figure P16.77A. When the force on the second block is removed, the spring pushes both blocks to the right. The block m2 loses contact with the springblock 1 system when the blocks reach the equilibrium configuration of the spring (Fig. P16.77B). a. What is the subsequent speed of block 2? b. Compare the speed of block 1 when it again passes through the equilibrium position with the speed of block 2 found in part (a). 77. (a) The energy of the system initially is entirely potential energy. E0=U0=12kymax2=12(225N/m)(0.150m)2=2.53J At the equilibrium position, the total energy is the total kinetic energy of both blocks: 12(m1+m2)v2=12(4.50kg+3.00kg)v2=(3.75kg)v2=2.53J Therefore, the speed of each block is v=2.53J3.75kg=0.822m/s (b) Once the second block loses contact, the first block is moving at the speed found in part (a) at the equilibrium position. The energy 01 this spring-block 1 system is conserved, so when it returns to the equilibrium position, it will be traveling at the same speed in the opposite direction, or v=0.822m/s.
