A block sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a horizontal spring with a spring constant of 600 N/m. The block executes SHM about its equilibrium position with a period of 0.40 s and an amplitude of 0.20 m. As the block slides through its equilibrium position, a 0.50 kg putty wad is dropped vertically onto the block. If the putty wad sticks to the block, determine (a) the new period of the motion and (b) the new amplitude of the motion.

Definition Definition Special type of oscillation where the force of restoration is directly proportional to the displacement of the object from its mean or initial position. If an object is in motion such that the acceleration of the object is directly proportional to its displacement (which helps the moving object return to its resting position) then the object is said to undergo a simple harmonic motion. An object undergoing SHM always moves like a wave.
1)
Consider two positively charged particles, one of charge q0 (particle 0) fixed at the origin, and another of charge q1 (particle 1) fixed on the y-axis at (0,d1,0). What is the net force F→ on particle 0 due to particle 1?
Express your answer (a vector) using any or all of k, q0, q1, d1, i^, j^, and k^.
2)
Now add a third, negatively charged, particle, whose charge is −q2− (particle 2). Particle 2 fixed on the y-axis at position (0,d2,0). What is the new net force on particle 0, from particle 1 and particle 2?
Express your answer (a vector) using any or all of k, q0, q1, q2, d1, d2, i^, j^, and k^.
3)
Particle 0 experiences a repulsion from particle 1 and an attraction toward particle 2. For certain values of d1 and d2, the repulsion and attraction should balance each other, resulting in no net force. For what ratio d1/d2 is there no net force on particle 0?
Express your answer in terms of any or all of the following variables: k, q0, q1, q2.

A bobsled starts at the top of a track as human runners sprint from rest and then jump into the sled. Assume they reach 40 km/h from rest after covering a distance of 50 m over flat ice. a. How much work do they do on themselves and the sled which they are pushing given the fact that there are two men of combined mass 185 kg and the sled with a mass of 200 kg? (If you haven't seen bobsledding, watch youtube to understand better what's going on.) b. After this start, the team races down the track and descends vertically by 200 m. At the finish line the sled crosses with a speed of 55 m/s. How much energy was lost to drag and friction along the way down after the men were in the sled?
