Concept explainers
A series of small packages, each with a mass of 0.5 kg, are discharged from a conveyor belt as shown. Knowing that the coefficient of static friction between each package and the conveyor belt is 0.4, determine (a) the force exerted by the belt on the package just after it has passed point A, (b) the angle θ defining the point B where the packages first slip relative to the belt.

- Question 1. A spring is used to stop a 60 kg package which is sliding on a horizontal surface. The spring has a constant k = 20 kN/m and is held by cables so that it is initially compressed 120 mm. The package has a velocity of 2.5 m/s in the position shown and the maximum deflection of the spring is 40 mm.

A 10.0-kg block is released from point A on a track ABCD as shown. The track is frictionless except for the portion BC, of length 6.0 m. The block travels down the track and hits a spring with a spring constant of 2250 N/m and compresses it a distance of 0.30 m from its equilibrium position before coming to a stop momentarily.

A transducer measures the force during the impact, and the force P varies as shown.

The one at the bottom, package 1 which has mass m1m1, continues, without slipping against the belt, through the opening. (The belt continues without slowing.) The one on the the top, package 2 with mass m2m2, presses firmly against the wall and slips across the lower package. The same coefficients of friction, μsμs and μkμk, apply between the pair of packages and between the package and the belt.

- The contraption shown below consists of two masses connected by a string of negligible mass through a massless pulley. A spring with constant k is placed so that its equilibrium position is located a distance h below the bottom of mass m2. There is no friction either in the pulley or between the surfaces of the masses and the platform. When the two masses m¡ and m2 are released from rest, mass m2 begins falling and pulls mass m¡ up the ramp. a) Find an expression for the maximum compression of the spring d caused by mass m2 when it hits the spring. Your answer should be in terms of the m2 variables given (and g). b) On the axes below, make sketches of the kinetic energy (K), gravitational potential energy (Ugav), and elastic potential energy (Ua) of the system as a function of the height of m2, where y = 0 is defined as the point where mass m2 collides with the spring.
