Solve it correctly please. I will rate with 2-3 ratings. But need correct answer.
A small block slides down a frictionless track whose shape is described by y = (x^2) /d for x<0 and by y = -(x^2)/d for x>0. The value of d is 3.88 m, and x and y are measured in meters as usual. Suppose the block starts from rest on the track, at x = -2.99 m. What will the block s speed be when it reaches x = 0?

- An object is thrown up from the height h0 with the speed 20 m/s. If the maximum height that the object reached is 30m, find h0.arrow_forwardprevious problem: A small block slides down a frictionless track whose shape is described by y = (x^2) /d for x<0 and by y = -(x^2)/d for x>0. The value of d is 3.85 m, and x and y are measured in meters as usual. Suppose the block starts from rest on the track, at x = -1.99 m. What will the block s speed be when it reaches x = 0? New problem Same type of track as in the previous problem, this time with d = 4.73 m. The block starts at x = 0, and is given a push to the left with an initial speed of 7.57 m/s, so it starts sliding up the track to the left. At what value of x will the block reverse direction and start sliding back down? -3.72 m 3.72 m 2.92 m -2.92 marrow_forwardA 2 kg block slides down a frictionless incline from a height of 5 m.

The system is released from rest while m is on the floor and m, is a distance h above the floor. (a) Assuming m, > m,. find an expression for the speed of m, just as it reaches the floor.

- A cyclist coasts up a 10.7° slope, traveling 22.0 m along the road to the top of the hill. If the cyclist's initial speed is 9.10 m/s, what is the final speed? Ignore friction and air resistance.arrow_forwardMalar is playing with a toy car and track set. She has assembled the track so that it contains a large hill to let the car roll down, followed by a series of small hills and then a short, flat section on the floor. The car starts at the top of the hill, which is 137 cm above the short, flat section. If there were no friction or air resistance, how fast would the car be moving when it reached the flat section at the bottom? If the car is measured to be moving with a speed of 3.24 m/s on the flat section at the bottom, then how much energy was lost due to friction and air resistance? The car's mass is 64 grams. Malar adds to the track so that the car's release point is even higher now. How high would the release point need to be in order for the car to have the speed you found in part (a) when it reaches the short, flat section at the bottom? Assume that the same amount energy that was lost in part (b) is also lost in this case.arrow_forwardA 33.6-kg child starting from rest slides down a water slide with a vertical height of 14.0 m.
