In the figure below, block-2 of mass M = 1 Kg is at rest on a frictionless surface and touching the end of an un-stretched spring whose spring constant is 200 N/m. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. Block-1 of mass 2 Kg, travelling at speed v_1 = 4 m/s, collides with block-2 and the two blocks stick together. When the blocks momentarily stop, by what distance is the spring compressed?
A block with mass m = 14 kg rests on a frictionless table and is accelerated by a spring with spring constant k = 4174 N/m after being compressed a distance x1 = 0.512 m from the spring’s unstretched length. The floor is frictionless except for a rough patch a distance d = 2.7 m long. For this rough path, the coefficient of friction is μk = 0.44. 1) How much work is done by the spring as it accelerates...
A block with mass m = 16 kg rests on a frictionless table and is accelerated by a spring with spring constant k = 4850 N/m after being compressed a distance x1 = 0.51 m from the spring’s unstretched length. The floor is frictionless except for a rough patch a distance d = 2.5 m long. For this rough path, the coefficient of friction is μk = 0.45. How much work is done by the spring as it accelerates the...
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...
A mass of 1 kg and initial speed 10 m/s slides across a horizontal frictionless surface and hits a spring of force constant 200 N/m. How much will the spring be compressed from its relaxed length when the block will be at rest momentarily?
A projectile of mass m is shot into a block of mass M. The block is initially at rest at the edge of a frictionless table. The table top is a height h above the floor. The projectile hits and sticks to the block. After impact the masses land a distance d from the edge of the table. Determine the expression for the initial speed of the projectile.
A solid block of mass m2 = 2.3 kg, at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface, is connected to a relaxed spring (with spring constant k = 260 N/m whose other end is fixed. Another solid block of mass m1 = 2.2 kg and speed v1 = 3.3 m/s collides with the 2.30 kg block. If the blocks stick together, what is their speed immediately after the collision?What is the maximum compression of the spring?
A block with mass m = 1.86 kg is placed against a spring on a frictionless incline with angle θ = 33.9° (see the figure). (The block is not attached to the spring.) The spring, with spring constant k = 25 N/cm, is compressed 28.1 cm and then released. (a) What is the elastic potential energy of the compressed spring? (b) What is the change in the gravitational potential energy of the block-Earth system as the block moves from the...
3. A block of mass M oscillates with amplitude A on a frictionless horizontal table, connected to an ideal spring of force constant k. The period of its oscillations is T. At the moment when the block is at position x-A and moving to the right, a ball of clay of mass m dropped from above lands on the block : k (a)What is the velocity of the block just before the clay hits? b) What is the velocity of...
6. Consider a horizontal spring with spring constant k. A block with mass m is pushed far to the left against the spring until the spring is compressed a distance r relative to its relaxed length. A second block, which is stationary and also has a mass m, is located to the right of the spring im rrm a) We release the first block from rest. Due to the force from the spring, it slides to the right and eventually...
