A 100g block is initially compressing a spring 5.0 cm. The spring launches the block 50cm horizontally along the ground with a f

riction force of 15N. The block then slides up a frictionless ramp at 30 degrees reaching a 1.5m maximum height off the ground. What was the force constant of the spring

Answer:

7200 N/m

Explanation:

Metric unit conversion

100g = 0.1 kg

5 cm = 0.05 m

50 cm = 0.5 m

As the block is released from the spring and travelling to height h = 1.5m off the ground, the elastics energy is converted to work of friction force and the potential energy at 1.5 m off the ground

The work by friction force is the product of the force F = 15N itself and the distance s = 0.5 m

W_f = F_fs = 15*0.5 = 7.5 J

Let g = 10 m/s2. The change in potential energy can be calculated as the following:

E_p = mgh = 0.1*10*1.5 = 1.5 J

Therefore, as elastic energy is converted to potential energy and work of friction:

E_e = W_f + E_p

kx^2/2 = 7.5 + 1.5 = 9 J

k = 9*2/x^2 = 18/0.05^2 = 7200 N/m

A 21 N block rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the surface and the block ar
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a)15 N

b)12.6 N

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of block (wt)= 21 N

μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60

We know that

Maximum value of static friction given as

Frs = μs m g = μs .wt

by putting the values

Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N

Value of kinetic friction

Frk= μk m g = μk .wt

By putting the values

Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N

a)

When T = 15 N

Static friction Frs= 16.8 N

Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.

Friction force = 15 N

b)

When T= 35 N

Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N

Friction force = 12.6 N

Which quantity best describes this description? Justin walks at 3 miles per hour north, and then speeds up to 4 miles per hour.
prisoha [69]

Personally, I agree with your answer, namely that the likely-intended event happening here is one of acceleration. Having said that, I also want to add: it pains me to see this type of wording because, clearly, it is vague and only invites confusion of the type you are talking about.

Good luck!
