In Fig. the upper ball is released from rest, collides with the stationary lower ball, and sticks to it. The strings are both 50.0 cm long. The upper ball has mass 2.00 kg, and it is initially 10.0 cm higher than the lower ball, which has mass 3.00 kg. Find the frequency and maximum angular displacement of the motion after the collision.
A 5 kg block is suspended from the ceiling by a 1.5 m long rope and is at rest. A 25 g
projectile is fired horizontally at the block with a velocity of 50 m/s, and sticks inside the
block. The block then moves as a simple pendulum in simple harmonic motion. How far
above the block's equilibrium position does it go?
A 480-gg block on a frictionless surface is attached to a rather limp spring of constant k=8.7N/mk=8.7N/m. A second block rests on the first, and the whole system executes simple harmonic motion with a period of 1.2 ss . When the amplitude of the motion is increased to 35 cmcm, the upper block just begins to slip.
What is the coefficient of static friction between the blocks?
