A block of mass m = 1.5 kg is released from rest at a height of H = 0.81 m on a curved frictionless ramp. At the foot of the ram

p is a spring whose spring constant is k = 250.0 N/m. What is the maximum compression of the spring, x?

Answer:

0.31 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the block = 1.5 kg

H = height from which the block is released on ramp = 0.81 m

k = spring constant of the spring = 250 N/m

x = maximum compression of the spring

using conservation of energy

Spring potential energy gained by spring = Potential energy lost by block

(0.5) k x² = mgH

(0.5) (250) x² = (1.5) (9.8) (0.81)

x = 0.31 m

Natali [406]

centripetal acceleration is given by formula

a_c = \omega^2*R

given that

a_c = 34.1 m/s^2

R  =  5.91 m

now we have

\omega^2 R = 34.1

\omega^2 * 5.91 = 34.1

\omega^2 = 5.77

\omega = 2.4 rad/s

so the ratationa frequency is given by

\omega = 2 \pi f

2.4 = 2 \pi f

f = \frac{2.4}{2\pi}

f = 0.38 Hz
