(a) A 15.0 kg block is released from rest at point A in the figure below. The track is frictionless except for the portion betwe
en points B and C, which has a length of 6.00 m. The block travels down the track, hits a spring of force constant 2,150 N/m, and compresses the spring 0.200 m from its equilibrium position before coming to rest momentarily. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough surface between points B and C. (b) What If? The spring now expands, forcing the block back to the left. Does the block reach point B?
If the block does reach point B, how far up the curved portion of the track does it reach, and if it does not, how far short of point B does the block come to a stop? (Enter your answer in m.)
This was calculated by the application of energy conservation principle (the total sum of energy in a closed system is conserved)
(b) No, it comes to a stop 5.35m short of point B. This is so because the spring on expanding only does a work of 43 J on the block which is not enough to meet up the workdone of 398 J against friction.
Explanation:
The detailed step by step solution to this problems can be found in the attachment below. The solution for part (a) was divided into two: the motion of the body from point A to point B and from point B to point C. The total energy in the system is gotten from the initial gravitational potential energy. This energy becomes transformed into the work done against friction and the work done in compression the spring. A work of 398J was done in overcoming friction over a distance of 6.00m. The energy used in doing so is lost as friction is not a conservative force. This leaves only 43J of energy which compresses the spring. On expansion the spring does a work of 43J back on the block is only enough to push it over a distance of 0.65m stopping short of 5.35m from point B.

The cold air increases pressure on the basketball, causing it to appear flat. When it warms up that pressure is taken off, so the basketball is at it's normal state.
Ohm's law states that I=V/R (Current=volts divided by resistance). Since we're looking for resistance, we'll rewrite it as R=V/I. Then just plug in the numbers; R=84/9, R= 9 1/3 or 28/3. The resistance of the wire is 9.33... or 9 1/3 ohm's, depending on how you wanna write it.
M×g+m×a=m×g×0,66. :m g+a=g×0,66 a=g×0,66-g=g×(0,66-1) a=9,81×(-0,34)=-3,3354 The acceleration is negative which means he is moving downward. The force of Weight is F=m×g and you have to add m×a for the acceleration of the elevator.
They are both electromagnetic waves. Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation.
