A block of mass m slides down a ramp of height hand
collides with an identical block that is initially at rest.
The two blocks stick together and travel around a loop of
radius R without losing contact with the track. Point A is
at the top of the loop, point B is at the end of a horizon-
tal diameter, and point C is at the bottom of the loop, as
shown in the figure above. Assume that friction between
the track and blocks is negligible.
(a) The dots below represent the two connected
blocks at points A, B, and C. Draw free-body dia-
grams showing and labeling the forces (not com
ponents) exerted on the blocks at each position.
Draw the relative lengths of all vectors to reflect
the relative magnitude of the forces.

terms of m, h, R, and fundamental constants.

the ramp, just before it contacts the stationary

Justify your description with reference to the
graph.
(b) Assume the elevator starts from an initial position
of y = 0 at t=0. Deriving any numerical values

function of time for the elevator from
t=0 to t = 3.0 seconds.
ii. Write an equation for the position as a
function of time for the elevator from t = 3.0
seconds to t = 19 seconds.
(c) A student of weight mg gets on the elevator
and rides the elevator during the time interval
shown in the graph. Consider the force of con-
tact, F, between the floor and the student. How
Justify your answer with reference to the graph

ii. = 10.0 s
Students are asked to use circular motion to measure the
coefficient of static friction between two materials. They
have a round turntable with a surface made from one of
the materials, for which they can vary the speed of rotation.
They also have a small block of mass m made from the sec-
ond material. A rough sketch of the apparatus is shown in
the figure below. Additionally they have equipment normally
found in a physics classroom.

(a) Briefly describe a procedure that would allow you
to use this apparatus to calculate the coefficient of
static friction, u.
(b) Based on your procedure, determine how to
analyze the data collected to calculate the
