We are going to create a model for the forces acting when climbing with mass 'm' while falling on a rope. To simplify the problem, we will assume that there is no external or internal friction on the rope, and that there is no slack in the rope when the climber falls a height 'h/2' above the last belay, as shown in Figure. The rope has a length 'L' (in meters) when the fall occurs. All movement in the model is vertical (along the y-axis), and we will assume that the positive direction is downward. In part (a), the climber is in free fall until the rope starts to catch the fall. Set up the model for free fall and derive the expression for the velocity v0 that the climber has when the rope starts to slow down the fall. You can assume that the climber's speed is only a function of 'y' such that dy/dt = v(y)⟹ d²v/dt² = v * dv/dy
Let's consider the system given in Figure 2. The end of a flexible spring with spring constant k is attached to the wall and the other end to a block of mass m. There is no friction between the block and the inclined plane. When the spring is at its natural length, the block is first decelerated. The angle of inclination of the inclined plane is given as ß. a) What is the acceleration of the blog when the spring is extended by x?

Which of the following statements about springs are true? Select one: O Springs that we analyze in this course are "elastic". O Spring forces do not use the unit Newton (N). O Spring forces cannot be varied, they stay constant no matter what you do to the spring. O The spring constant is an unitless quantity.
Two identical springs are connected end to end. (a) Is the force constant of the resulting compound spring greater than, lessthan, or equal to the force constant of a single spring? (b) Which of the following is the best explanation for your prediction?I. The resulting force constant is greater because two springs are acting together, doubling the force.II. The two springs produce a longer compound spring—but the material is the same, and therefore the force constant isthe same as well.III. The force constant is less for the compound spring because it stretches twice as far for the same applied force

Answer either this question or the next. L M Ax 3. A pendulum of length L = 1.0 meter and bob with mass m = 1.0 kg is released from rest at an angle 30° from the vertical. When the pendulum reaches the vertical position, the bob strikes a mass M = 3.0 kg that is resting on a frictionless table of height h = 0.85 m. You may assume the string is massless, and drag is negligible. a. Calculate the speed of the bob just before it strikes the box (i.e., when the pendulum string hangs straight down). b. Calculate the speeds of the bob and the box just after they collide elastically. c. Determine the impulse that acts on the box during the collision. d. Determine how far from the bottom edge of the table, Ax, the box lands.
