A 25 kg block is held against a compressed spring and then
the spring is allowed to decompress giving the block a
velocity. The block then slides to the right on a horizontal
frictionless surface and then up a frictionless incline.
A block of mass m is pushed against a spring of spring
constant k fixed at one end to a wall. The block can slide
on a frictionless table as shown in figure (8-W6). The
natural length of the spring is L, and it is compressed
to half its natural length when the block is released. Find
the velocity of the block as a function of its distance x
from the wall.
Figure 8-W6
A 3 kg block travels along a horizontal surface with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.28 at a speed of 7 m/s. After sliding a distance of 1.4 m the block makes a smooth transition to a ramp with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.28. How far up the ramp does the block travelled before coming to a momentary stop.
