The hill is covered in gravel so that the truck's wheels will slide up the hill instead of rolling up the hill. The coefficient

of kinetic friction between the tires and the gravel is k. This design has a spring at the top of the ramp that will help to stop the trucks. This spring is located at height h. The spring will compress until the truck stops, and then a latch will keep the spring from decompressing (stretching back out). The spring can compress a maximum distance x because of the latching mechanism. Your job is to determine how strong the spring must be. In other words, you need to find the spring constant so that a truck of mass mt, moving at an initial speed of v0, will be stopped. For this problem, it is easiest to define the system such that it contains everything: Earth, hill, truck, gravel, spring, etc. In all of the following questions, the initial configuration is the truck moving with a speed of v0 on the level ground, and the final configuration is the truck stopped on the hill with the spring compressed by an amount x. The truck is still in contact with the spring. Solve all of the questions algebraically first. Then use the following values to get a number for the desired answer.

an object with a mass of 2.4 kg has a force of 12.6 N applied to it. What is the resulting acceleration of the object? WITH PROO
Scorpion4ik [409]
Newton’s Law: F = MA
A = F/M (change equation)
12.6 N/ 2.4 kg = 5.25
Answer: acceleration is 5.25 m/s^2

A crow is flying horizontally with a constant speed of 2.70 m/s when it releases a clam from its beak. the clam lands on the roc
vovangra [49]

Part a)

in horizontal direction there is no gravity or no other acceleration

so in horizontal direction the speed of clam will remain same

v_x = 2.70 m/s

Part b)

In vertical direction we can use kinematics

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 0 + 2.1 * 9.8

v_f = 20.6 m/s

part c)

if the speed of crow will be increased then the horizontal speed of the clam will also increase but there is no change in the vertical speed
