- A 5 kg block is attached to a spring of constant k = 2400 N/m. The coefficient of friction between the block and the ground is 0.4. Under its initial condition, a force F is applied to the block until the restoring force of the spring reaches 100 N. To reach its final condition, the applied force F is removed. Then, the block moves and the spring returns to its unstretched position. Use 9.81m/s^2 for the gravity. a) Using the formula Fspring=kx, determine the distance in meters of the block from its unstretched position until it has a restoring force of 100N. b)Determine the work done by friction in Joules from the initial position (stretched) to its final position (unstretched). c)If the total work done on the system is 1.2658 J, determine the final velocity of the block (by relating work and kinetic energy)arrow_forwardA 1470-kg car is being driven up a 5.76 ° hill. The frictional force is directed opposite to the motion of the car and has a magnitude of 515 N. A force F is applied to the car by the road and propels the car forward. In addition to these two forces, two other forces act on the car: its weight W and the normal force FN directed perpendicular to the road surface. The length of the road up the hill is 289 m.

The inclined plane makes an angle of 0 = 37° with the horizontal and the coefficients of kinetic and static friction are μ = 0.2 and μ = 0.5. The system is initially at rest and a student starts to fill the bucket with balls, each of whose mass is 100 grams, one at a time until the system starts to move. Determine the number of balls the student placed in the bucket. Take g = 9.80m/s² and please note that the number balls must be an integer! Answer: MA mbucketarrow_forward

- What is the power in kW produced by the La Rance tidal power station in France if the usable tidal range is 10 m? The barrage is 140m long and the area of the basin behind the barrage is 22 km2. Tidal period is 12h 25minutes. Density of salt water is 1020 kg/m3. Use proper units and 3 significant figures.arrow_forwardA speedboat with a mass of 545 kg545 kg (including the driver) is tethered to a fixed buoy by a strong 32.7 m32.7 m cable. The boat's owner loves high speed, but does not really want to go anywhere. So the owner revs up the boat's engine, makes a lot of noise, and runs the boat in circles around the buoy with the cable supplying all the necessary centripetal force. When the tension of the cable is steady at 13700 N,13700 N, with what force is the boat's engine pushing the boat? Different physics textbooks treat drag force somewhat differently and use different formulas. For the present purpose, take the water's drag force on the boat to be (450 kg/m)×?2,(450 kg/m)×v2, where ?v denotes the boat's speed. Ignore any drag force on the cable.arrow_forwardAn astronaut lands on a newly-discovered planet (without an atmosphere). As an experiment, she throws vertically upwards a pure vanadium sphere of radius 2.0 cm and density 5.5 × 103 kg m3 with an initial speed of 3.0 ms 1. The point of release is 1.2 m above the ground. She observes the sphere to travel 4.8 m before it starts falling to the ground. Calculate the kinetic energy of the projectile just as it hits the ground.arrow_forward
