The block is supported so that the cord is not stretched. The unstretched length of the cord is L0, and its mass is m, much less than M. The spring constant for the cord is k. The block is released and stops momentarily at the lowest point. (a) Determine the tension in the string when the block is at this lowest point. (b) What is the length of the cord in this stretched position? (c) If the block is held in this lowest position, find the speed of a transverse wave in the cord.arrow_forwardA lightweight spring with spring constant k = 225 N/m is attached to a block of mass m1 = 4.50 kg on a frictionless, horizontal table. 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.

- One type of toy car contains a spring that is compressed as the wheels are rolled backward along a surface. The spring remains compressed until the wheels are freed and the car is allowed to roll forward. Jose learns that if he rolls the car backward for a greater distance (up to a certain point), the car will go faster when he releases it. The spring compresses 1.00 cm for every 10.0 cm the car is rolled backward. a. Assuming the spring constant is 150.0 N/m, what is the elastic potential energy stored in the spring when Jose rolls the car backward 20.0 cm? b. What is the elastic potential energy stored in the spring when he rolls the car backward 30.0 cm? c. Explain the correlation between the results for parts (a) and (b) and Joses observations of different speeds.arrow_forwardYou attach a block to the bottom end of a spring hanging vertically. You slowly let the block move down and find that it hangs at rest with the spring stretched by 15.0 cm. Next, you lift the block back up to the initial position and release it from rest with the spring unstretched. What maximum distance does it move down? (a) 7.5 cm (b) 15.0 cm (c) 30.0 cm (d) 60.0 cm (e) The distance cannot be determined without knowing the mass and spring constant.arrow_forwardA cafeteria tray dispenser supports a stack of trays on a shelf that hangs from four identical spiral springs under tension, one near each corner of the shelf. Each tray is rectangular, 45.3 cm by 35.6 cm. 0.450 cm thick, and with mass 580 g. (a) Demonstrate that the top tray in the stack can always be at the same height above the floor, however many trays are in the dispenser, (b) Find the spring constant each spring should have for the dispenser to function in this convenient way.
