Block A of mass mA is moving horizontally with speed Va along a frictionless surface
Block A of mass mA is moving horizontally with speed Va along a frictionless surface. It collides elastically with block B of mass mB that is initially at rest. After the collision block B enters a rough surface at x =0 with a coefficient of kinetic friction that increases linearly with distance μ(x) = bx for 0 ≤ x ≤ d, where b is a positive constant. At x=d block B collides with an unstretched spring with spring constant k on a frictionless surface. The downward gravitational acceleration has magnitude g.
What is the distance the spring is compressed when block B first comes to rest? Express your answer in terms of Va, mA, mB, b, d, g, and k.
STEPS should be used to solve this problem:
1) Find speeds of both blocks after collision (note collision is elastic as given).
2) Find the work done by friction on block B.
3) Find the speed of block B at the end of the rough surface.
4) Find the distance compressed in spring.

Block A of mass, mA = 1.7 kg is shot from a spring device of spring constant, k = 700 N/m along a frictionless horizontal surface. The initial compression of the spring is 0.300 m. The shot makes the block rise to another horizontal level at a height h= 1m above the first. On this horizontal it collides with another stationary block B of mass mB = 3.5 kg. The blocks stick together and encounter a rough surface. The blocks...

Block 2 (mass 1.10 kg) is at rest on a frictionless surface and touching the end of an unstretched spring of spring constant 144 N/m. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. Block 1 (mass 1.70 kg), traveling at speed v1 = 3.60 m/s, collides with block 2, and the two blocks stick together. When the blocks momentarily stop, by what distance is the spring compressed? Answer 0.305 m My question is how did they solve...
