4. Two blocks with masses 10.0 kg and 15.0 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface. A light spring is placed in a horizontal position between the blocks. The blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring, and then release from rest. After blocks have lost contact with the spring, the 10.0 kg mass has velocity, v = 4.0 î m/s. (a) How much potential energy was stored in the spring before the blocks were released? (b) What is the...
Two blocks with masses 0.90 kg and 3.90 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface. A light spring is placed in a horizontal position between the blocks. The blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring, and then released from rest. After the blocks lose contact with the spring ends, the 3.90 kg mass has a speed of 1.00 m/s. The combined final kinetic energies of the blocks was originally stored in the spring. Determine how much potential energy was...
Two blocks move along a linear path on a nearly frictionless air track. One block, of mass 0.105 kg, initially moves to the right at a speed of 4.50 m/s, while the second block, of mass 0.210 kg, is initially to the left of the first block and moving to the right at 7.10 m/s. Find the final velocities of the blocks, assuming the collision is elastic. velocity of the 0.105 kg block = velocity of the 0.210 kg block...
A block of mass m = 8.40 kg, moving on a horizontal frictionless surface with a speed 4.20 m/s, makes a perfectly elastic collision with a block of mass M at rest. After the collision, the 8.40 kg block recoils with a speed of 0.400 m/s. In the figure, the blocks are in contact for 0.200 s. What is the magnitude of the average force on the 8.40 kg block, while the two blocks are in contact?
A block of mass M = 5.60 kg, at rest on a horizontal frictionless table, is attached to a rigid support by a spring of constant k = 6390 N/m. A bullet of mass m = 8.20 g and velocity of magnitude 710 m/s strikes and is embedded in the block (the figure). Assuming the compression of the spring is negligible until the bullet is embedded, determine (a) the speed of the block immediately after the collision and (b) the...
