a. Does a car’s kinetic energy change more when the car speeds up from 11 to 18 m/s or from 16 to 23 m/s? Explain. b. A stone cube is pressed against an uncompressed spring (length = 6.80 m) until it is fully compressed (length = 0.70 m), the stone cube is exactly at the bottom of an incline of slope 35.0°. Upon released, the spring projects the stone cube up the incline. Right when the stone cube is no longer in contact with the spring, it is moving up the incline at 8.70 m/s. The mass of the stone cube is 2.10 kg and the mass of the spring is negligible. Given that the μk between the stone cube and the surface of the incline is = 0.46. Calculate the amount of potential energy that was initially stored in the spring.

A hand pushes a 3 kg block along a table from point A to point C as shown in the figure below. The table has been prepared so that the left half of the table (from A to B) is frictionless. The right half (from B to C) has a non-zero coefficient of friction equal to µ. The hand pushes the block the full distance from A to C using a constant force of 5 N. The block starts off at rest at point A and comes to a stop when it reaches point C. The distance from A to B is 0.5 m and the distance from B to C is also 0.5 m. We will consider the block by itself as our system so all forces on the block are external. Initial position of block Final position ofblock P no friction friction A B C -1½ m 1½ m
