A block of mass 0.510 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x. T

he force constant of the spring is 450 N/m. When it is released, the block travels along a frictionless, horizontal surface to point circled A, the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1.00 m, and continues to move up the track. The speed of the block at the bottom of the track is vA = 13.7 m/s, and the block experiences an average frictional force of 7.00 N while sliding up the track. What is x? and what is the speed of the block if it reaches the top?

Answer:

x=0.46m, speed=7.9m/s

Explanation:

Using the concept of conservation of energy:

1. kinetic energy of mass m and velocity v: E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

2. gravitational potential energy of mass m, grav. acc. g and height h: E_g=mgh

3. potential energy in a spring with spring constant k and displacement from equilibrium x: E_s=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

Calculating x:

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

x=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v_a

Calculating the speed:

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2 +mgh_a=\frac{1}{2}mv_b^2+mgh_b + W_{friction}

h_a=0, h_b=2R,W_{friction}=F_{friction}\times distance=7\pi R

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_b^2+2mgR+7\pi R

Solving for v_b:

v_b=\sqrt{v_a^2-4gR-14\pi\frac{R}{m}}

Weight=1500n area=0.5 m2 pressure=​
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: 6000N/m^2

Explanation:

Weight =1500N

Area =0.5m^2

Pressure =1500/(0.5^2)

               =6000N/m^2

Note: Newton is denoted by 'N' (Capital) and use '^' for powers.
