A 2.25 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0340 m . The spring has

force constant 855 N/m . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is 0.45 . The block and spring are released from rest and the block slides along the floor. What is the speed of the block when it has moved a distance of 0.0200 m from its initial position? (At this point the spring is compressed 0.0140 m .)

Answer:

v = 0.434 m/s

Explanation:

let k be the spring force constant. for all the calculations.

the energy stored in the spring is given by:

Es = 1/2×k×(x^2)

    = 1/2×855×(0.0340)^2

    = 0.49419 J

then, the work done by friction is given by:

Wf = f×x = μ×m×g×x = (0.45)×(2.25)×(9.8)×(0.0200) = 0.19845 J

then, the energy stored in the spring at 0.0200 m is:

E = 1/2×k×x^2 = 1/2×(855)×(0.0140)^2 = 0.08379 J

by conservation of energy:

            Es = Wf + E + 1/2×m×v^2

0.49419 J = 0.19845 J + 0.08379 J + 1/2×m×v^2

0.49419 J = 0.19845 J + 0.08379 J + 1/2×(2.25)×v^2

  0.21195 = 1.125×v^2

             v = 0.434 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the block when it has moved 0.0200 from the initial position is 0.434 m/s.

Why do we see the sun before it actually rises in the morning?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

It appears to rise and set because of the Earth's rotation on its axis. It makes one complete turn every 24 hours. It turns toward the east. As the Earth rotates toward the east, it looks like the sun is moving west.
