Answer:
Assuming air resistance is negligible, all of the potential energy that the object has at the top of the ramp is converted into kinetic energy by the time it gets to the bottom of the ramp. This is because no matter what path the object takes to move the 5m vertically (ie. falling straight down v. sliding on the ramp), gravity does the same amount of work on it.
Thus, calculate the total amount of potential energy at the top of the ramp:
Ep=mgh
Ep=4(9.81)5
Ep=196.2 Joules
Because all of this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy in the object by the bottom of the ramp, the object hits the spring with 196.2J of energy.
By using the formula for elastic potential energy, you can calculate exactly how far the spring compresses.
196.2=(1/2)k(x^2)
392.4=(350)(x^2)
1.1211=x^2
sqrt(1.1211)=x
x=1.059m
As for the last part of the question, after the object compresses the spring fully and stops momentarily, the spring converts it's elastic potential energy back into kinetic energy in the object and pushes it away again.
Explanation:
I do not understand what your saying could u plz be more specific?
The answer is Newton's 3rd Law. The reason why is because a force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. ... These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject ofNewton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
