Concept explainers
Draw separate free-body diagrams for each block and for the spring immediately after release. Indicate separately the vertical forces (perpendicular to the table top) and the horinra1 forces (parallel to the table top). Clearly label all forces.
Identify all the
The free body diagram of block and spring.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Newtonian mechanics states that force never occurs singly in nature. Force is the mutual interaction between two bodies. The mutual forces are always equal and opposite in direction.
When the block is being apart, the spring force is acting towards the equilibrium position, and the block is coming towards each other as the spring is compressed.
In the vertical direction, force is acting on the block due to gravity.
The free body diagram in the vertical direction is shown in figure 1.
Figure 1
The free body diagram in horizontal direction is shown in figure 2.
Figure 2
Conclusion:
Therefore, the free body diagram in the vertical and horizontal direction is shown in Figures 1 and 2 respectively.

- 2. Consider the situation described in problem 1 where light emerges horizontally from ground level. Take k = 0.0020 m' and no = 1.0001 and find at which horizontal distance, x, the ray reaches a height of y = 1.5 m.arrow_forward2-3. Consider the situation of the reflection of a pulse at the interface of two string described in the previous problem. In addition to the net disturbances being equal at the junction, the slope of the net disturbances must also be equal at the junction at all times. Given that p1 = 4.0 g/m, H2 = 9.0 g/m and Aj = 0.50 cm find 2. A, (Answer: -0.10 cm) and 3. Ay.

- Look at the answer and please show all work step by steparrow_forward3. As a woman, who's eyes are h = 1.5 m above the ground, looks down the road sees a tree with height H = 9.0 m. Below the tree is what appears to be a reflection of the tree. The observation of this apparent reflection gives the illusion of water on the roadway. This effect is commonly called a mirage. Use the results of questions 1 and 2 and the principle of ray reversibility to analyze the diagram below. Assume that light leaving the top of the tree bends toward the horizontal until it just grazes ground level. After that, the ray bends upward eventually reaching the woman's eyes. The woman interprets this incoming light as if it came from an image of the tree. Determine the size, H', of the image.
