A box with an inertia of 2kg is held on a 1m high table against a spring with k = 75N which is initially compressed 0.5m. The coefficient of friction between the box and the table is 0.2. The spring is released, and it pushes the box until it reaches its equilibrium length. At this point, the spring is stopped by a stopper and the box continues to slide across the table with only the force of friction acting on it. After losing contact with the spring, the box travels the distance of the rest of the table, another 0.5m, where it then flies off the end of the table and lands on the floor. Assuming no air resistance,

(a) What was the net work done on the box while it was being pushed by the spring?
(b) What was the net work done on the box from the time it left the spring until it reached the edge of the table?
(c) How fast was the box moving when it flew off the table?
(d) How far from the table did the box land?

A 2kg rock is thrown horizontally from the top of a building that is 20m high. The rock’s initial horizontal velocity is 5m/s. When the rock is halfway to the ground, what is the net force on it (including direction)? How long did it take for the rock in problem 1 to hit the ground? How far from the base of the building did the rock in problem 1 hits？

A cylindrical bronze sleeve (2) is held in compression against a rigid machine wall by a high-strength steel bolt (1), as shown in the figure. The steel [E = 199 GPa; α = 11.7 × 10-6/°C] bolt has a diameter of 24 mm. The bronze [E = 110 GPa; α = 22.0 × 10-6/°C] sleeve has an outside diameter of 73 mm, a wall thickness of 9 mm, and a length of L = 550 mm. The end of the...

A horizontal rod of length 508 cm is held aloft by friction against a brick wall on one end and on the other end by a rope of length 628cm, which itself is attached to the brick wall directly above where the rod touches the wall. The coefficient of static friction between the wall and the rod is 0.435. A ball of the same weight as the rod hangs from the rod. What is the minimum distance ball must hang...

A 1.1 kg mass is held at rest on top of a frictionless and horizontal table. A light string loops over a pulley which is in the shape of a 10 cm radius solid disk which has a mass of 1.1 kg. The light string then supports a mass of 1.1 kg which is hanging in air. The mass on the table is released and the suspended mass falls. What is the acceleration of the falling mass. What is the...

6. Solve parts a and b: A box is at rest on a horizontal, frictionless table. a. Horizontal force F1 points along the positive x-axis; when it is the only force acting on the box, the box accelerates at 8 m/s2. Force F2 is also horizontal; it has magnitude 5.31F1 and acts at right angles to the direction of F1. If forces F1 and F2 act on the box at the same time, find the magnitude of the acceleration of...

A wooden block of mass 20.0 g is placed on a table, and pressed against a spring. The spring, of spring constant 25.0 N/m, is compressed 10.0 cm. Once released, the block slides (with friction) across the tabletop and eventually lands 1.59 m from the edge of the table on the floor, as shown in the figure. The tabletop is 1.00 m above the floor level. What is the speed of the block at the moment it leaves the tabletop?...
