Review. As shown in Figure P8.26, a light string that does not stretch changes from horizontal to vertical as it passes over the edge of a table. The string connects m1 , a 3.50- kg block originally at rest on the horizontal table at a height h = 1.20 m above the floor, to m2 , a hanging 1.90-kg block originally a distance d = 0.900 m above the floor. Neither the surface of the table nor its edge exerts a force of kinetic friction. The blocks start to move from rest. The sliding block m1 is projected horizontally after reaching the edge of the table. The hanging block m2 stops without bouncing when it strikes the floor. Consider the two blocks plus the Earth as the system. (a) Find the speed at which m1 leaves the edge of the table. (b) Find the impact speed of m1 on the floor. (c) What is the shortest length ofthe string so that it does not go taut while m1is in flight? (d) Is the energy of the systemwhen it is released from rest equal to the energy of the system just before m1…
A 5.00 kg block is moving at v0 = 6.00 m/s along a frictionless, horizontal surface toward a spring with force constant k = 500 N/m that is attached to a wall. The spring has negligible mass. What is the maximum compression of the spring i.e. how much will the spring compress before the block rebounds?
A 1.6-kg block is attached to the end of a 2.0-m string to form a pendulum. The pendulum is released
from rest when the string is horizontal. At the lowest point of its swing when it is moving horizontally,
the block is hit by a 10-g bullet moving horizontally in the opposite direction. The bullet remains in
the block and causes the block to come to rest at the low point of its swing. What was the magnitude
of the bullet's velocity just before hitting the block?

- A 11.2 kg weather rocket generates a thrust of 220 N . The rocket, pointing upward, is clamped to the top of a vertical spring. The bottom of the spring, whose spring constant is 580 N/m , is anchored to the ground. Initially, before the engine is ignited, the rocket sits at rest on top of the spring. How much is the spring compressed? Express your answer with the appropriate units. After the engine is ignited, what is the rocket's speed when the spring has stretched 30.0 cm ? Express your answer with the appropriate units. For comparison, what would be the rocket's speed after traveling this distance if it weren't attached to the spring? Express your answer with the appropriate units.arrow_forwardA 5.00-kg block is moving at 5.00 m/s along a horizontal frictionless surface toward an ideal massless spring that is attached to a wall.

- #Q14arrow_forwardProblem: Statics. A worker places an aluminum ladder on a horizontal concrete slab against a vertical wooden wall at 30 degrees from the vertical. The ladder has length L=5m and m=30 kg. The ladder's CM is at a third of the length up. Worker Bob has mass M-90 kg and intends to climb up the ladder. Simultaneously, worker Charlie has mass M-90 kg and operates a rope through a single pulley to hoist a pail of mass m=30 kg. The axle of the pulley is anchored to the ladder at A=0.3 m along the ladder from the top point. Charlie is pulling the rope down with enough force to hoist the pail at uniform velocity. The mass of the pulley and rope are negligible. The friction in the pulley axle is negligible. The ladder is equipped with rubber booties and a rubber top. The kinetic friction coefficients are: rubber on dry concrete 0.9, rubber on dry wood 0.9, aluminum on wet concrete 0.2, aluminum on wet wood 0.2. 30 30 a) Calculate the safety limit in terms of maximal height off the ground that Bob…arrow_forwardA father (mF = 90 kg) and his daughter (mD= 42 kg) stand on a flat frozen lake of negligible friction.

- To test the speed of a bullet, you create a pendulum by attaching a 5.00 kg wooden block to the bottom of a 2.40 m long, 1.40 kg rod. The top of the rod is attached to a frictionless axle and is free to rotate about that point. You fire a 10 g bullet into the block, where it sticks, and the pendulum swings out to an angle of 34.0°. What was the speed of the bullet?arrow_forwardA woman with mass m is standing on a platform and holding onto a light rope attached to a hook in the ceiling. A second rope, also attached to the hook, is being held by a man with larger mass M on a second platform. The ropes are the same length, and the ropes are initially horizontal. The two people start from rest and swing toward each other. They meet at the lowest point of their swings, and grab onto one another, swinging upward until the ropes make an angle of 32.1° with the vertical. Find the value of the ratio m/M.arrow_forwardA .430 kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 20 N/m. The block rests on a frictionles surface. A .500 kg wad of putty is thrown horizontally at the block, hitting it with a speed of 2.30 m/s and sticking. How far does the putty-block system compress the spring?arrow_forward

If the cord is stretched downward 0.25 m and the ball is released from rest, determine how far the cord stretches after the ball rebounds from the ceiling. The stiffness of the cord is k = 800 N/m and the coefficient of restitution between the ball and ceiling is e = 0.8. The ball makes a central impact with the ceiling.arrow_forwardA rocket motor is undergoing a "bench test." It is attached to a fixed support by four large springs of constant 10^6 N/m.
