As shown in right Figure, a pulley has a moment of inertia j=0.5kg m^2 and a radius r=30 cm. The spring has a spring constant k=20 N/m and the block has a mass m=2.0 kg. Assume the block-pulley system starts from rest and no initial stretch is applied on the spring.
(a) How far will the block move along the inclined?
(b) If the block slides 1.00 m along the inclined, what is its speed?


Consider the free-body diagram of the block-spring system.
Consider the spring is stretched as x, the displacement of the block along the incline will be the same.
Apply work-energy theorem on the system. The system starts from the rest, its initial kinetic energy will be the zero.

- NOTE: THE EXPLANATION MUST BE TYPED/ILLUSTRATED DIGITALLY - IT CANNOT BE HAND DRAWN After you pick up a spare, your bowling ball rolls without slipping back toward the ball rack with a linear speed of υi=2.62m/s. To reach the rack, the ball rolls up a ramp that rises through a vertical height of h=0.47m. (a) What is the linear speed of the ball when it reaches the top of the ramp? (b) If the radius of the ball were increased, would the speed found in part (a) increase, decrease, or stay the same? Explain.arrow_forwardAn electric motor exerts a constant torque of τ=10N⋅mτ=10N⋅m on a grindstone mounted on its shaft; the moment of inertia of the grindstone is I=2.0kg⋅m2I=2.0kg⋅m2. If the system starts from rest, find the work done by the motor in 8.0 ss and the kinetic energy at the end of this time. What was the average power delivered by the motor? SOLUTION SET UP AND SOLVE We want to use W=τΔθW=τΔθ to find the total work done and then divide that by the time interval Δt=8.0sΔt=8.0s to find the average power (work per unit time). But first we need to find the total angle ΔθΔθ (in radians) through which the grindstone turns. The angular acceleration αα is constant, so we can use τ=Iατ=Iα to find αα and then apply the formulas for constant angular acceleration. The angular acceleration is α=τI=10N⋅m2.0kg⋅m2=5.0rad/s2α=τI=10N⋅m2.0kg⋅m2=5.0rad/s2 For constant angular acceleration, θ=θ0+ω0t+12αt2=0+0+12(5.0rad/s2)(8s)2=160radθ=θ0+ω0t+12αt2=0+0+12(5.0rad/s2)(8s)2=160rad The total work…arrow_forwardOne end of a cord is fixed and a small 0.400-kg object is attached to the other end, where it swings in a section of a vertical circle of radius 1.50 m, as shown in the figure below.
