Answer:
x = 10.75 m
Explanation:
For this problem we will solve it in two parts, the first using energy and the second with kinematics
Let's use the energy work relationship to find the velocity of the block as it exits the ramp
W = - Em₀
Starting point. Higher
Em₀ = U = m g h
the height from the edge of the ramp of the graph has a value
h = 9-3 = 6 m
Final point. At the bottom of the ramp
Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²
Friction force work
W = - fr d
The friction force has the formula
fr = μ N
On the ramp, we can use Newton's second law
N - W cos θ = 0
N = W cos θ
where the angle is obtained from the graph
tan θ = (9-3) / (0.5-4) = -6 / 3.5
θ = tan⁻¹ (-1,714)
θ = -59.7º
the distance d is
d = √ (Δx² + Δy²)
d = √ [(0.5-4)² + (9-3)²]
d = 6.95 m
for which the work is
W = - μ mg cos 59.7 d
we substitute
W = Em_{f} -Em₀
- μ mg cos 59.7 d = ½ m v² - m g h
In the graph o text the value of the friction coefficient is not observed, suppose that it is μvery = 0.2
- μ g cos 59.7 d = ½ v² - g h
v² = 2g (h - very d coss 59.7)
let's calculate
v² = 2 9.8 (6 - 0.2 6.95 cos 59.7)
v = √ 103.8546
v = 10.19 m / s
in the same direction as the ramp
in the second part we use projectile launch kinematics
let's look for the components of velocity
v₀ₓ = vo cos -59.7
= vo sin (-59,7)
v₀ₓ = 10.19 cos (-59.7) = 5.14 m / s
v_{oy} = 10.19 if (-59.7) = -8.798 m / s
Let's find the time to get to the floor (y = o)
y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²
to de groph y₀=3 m
0 = 3 - 8.798 t - ½ 9.8 t²
t² - 1.796 t - 0.612 = 0
we solve the quadratic equation
t = [1.796 ±√(1.796² + 4 0.612)] / 2
t = [1,795 ± 2,382] / 2
t₁ = 2.09 s
t₂ = -0.29 s
since time must be a positive quantity the correct value is t = 2.09 s
we calculate the horizontal displacement
x = v₀ₓ t
x = 5.14 2.09
x = 10.75 m
