(e) System momentum is conserved with
(f) The forces on the two blocks are
internal forces, which cannot change the momentum
of the system; the system is isolated. (g) Even though
there is motion afterward, the final momenta are of
equal magnitude in opposite directions, so the final
momentum of the system is still zero.

in the cord? (d) Explain your answer to part (c). (e) Is the
momentum of the system conserved in the bursting-apart
process? Explain how that is possible considering (f) there
are large forces acting and (g) there is no motion before-
hand and plenty of motion afterward?

- phyarrow_forwardAs given in the figure below, a 4 kg block is accelerated from rest by a compressed spring of spring constant 320 N/m. The block leaves the spring at the spring's relaxed length and then travels over a horizontal floor with a coefficient of kinetic friction uk=0.25. The frictional force stops the block in distance D=5 m. Find the original compression distance of the springarrow_forwardA person has a mass of 45 kg is running with a velocity of 12.0 m/s. All of a sudden, the person plants their feet and stops abruptly in 3.75 m. This was some mighty agressive stoppage power! Your answer to part (a) may reflect that. a. What was the coefficient of friction between their shoes and the ground in order to do so? b. If it took place in 0.625 seconds how much power was expended by friction on the person?arrow_forward

ANSWER SUBPARTS D Earrow_forwardA block of mass m 2.00 kg slides along a horizontal table with speed vo 9.50 m/s. At x = 0 it hits a spring with spring constant k95.00 N/m and it also begins to experience a friction force. The coefficient of friction is given by u 0.100.

- 1. Blocks A and B move along frictionless vertical bars and are connected with a rope that wraps around the frictionless pulley at P. Block A has a mass of 2kg and block B has a mass of 10 kg. The spring shown is unstretched when block B is in contact with the ground. The system is released from rest in the position shown. Determine the speeds of A and B immediately before B hits the ground. Neglect the mass of the rope and the pulley. The linear spring has a stiffness of 40 N/m and is attached to the ground and to block B.
