k Problem 2 (30 pts) Blocks A and B are released from rest when the spring is unstretched. Block A has a mass my=3kg, and the linear spring has stiffness k=8N/m. If all sources of friction are negligible, determine the mass of block B such that it has a speed vp=1.5m/s after moving 1.2m downward, assuming that A never leaves the horizontal surface shown and the cord connecting A and B is inextensible. Use the work-energy principle. A B
Now let’s use the concept of elastic potential energy to solve a problem involving a spring. A glider with mass m=0.200kg sits on a frictionless horizontal air track, connected to a spring of negligible mass with force constant k=5.00N/m. You pull on the glider, stretching the spring 0.100 m, and then release it with no initial velocity. The glider begins to move back toward its equilibrium position (x=0). What is its speed when x=0.0800m? Part a: What is the value...
