Show a complete solution to the following question.
A 10.0 kg block is being held in place at the top of a rough ramp which is at a 45 o angle to the horizontal. The coefficient
of static friction between the ramp and the block is 0.15 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. There is a spring at
the bottom of the ramp lying parallel to the ramp and it obeys Hooke’s Law. The spring constant is 1200 M/m. The
distance between the side of the block facing the spring and the upper surface of the spring is 3.0 metres.

(a) Make an FBD for the block when it is sliding down the ramp.
(b) Calculate the speed of the block just before it makes contact with the spring.
(c) Set up the equation which would determine the maximum compression of the spring after the block makes contact with
the spring. You DO NOT have to solve the equation but you do need to clearly define any variables which appear in the
equation.

A 18.0 kg block of metal measuring 12.0 cm by 10.0 cm by 10.0 cm is suspended from a scale and immersed in water as shown in the figure below. The 12.0 cm dimension is vertical, and the top of the block is 5.20 cm below the surface of the water. What are the magnitudes of the forces (in N) acting on the top and on the bottom of the block due to the surrounding water? (Use P0 = 1.0130 105...

A 10.0 kg metal block measuring 12.0 cm X 10.0 cm X 10.0 cm is suspended from a spring scale (mass meter) and immersed in water. The 12.0 cm dimension is vertical, and the top of the block is 5.00 cm below the water surface. (A) What are the forces acting at the top and bottom of the block? (Take P0 = 1,013 0 X 105 N / m2.)

The arrangement in the drawing shows a block (mass = 15.0 kg) that is held in position on a frictionless incline by a cord (length = 0.52 m). The mass per unit length of the cord is 1.26 × 10-2 kg/m, so the mass of the cord is negligible compared to the mass of the block. The cord is being vibrated at a frequency of 91.7 Hz (vibration source not shown in the drawing). What is the largest angle θ...

A block having a mass of 10.0 kg is pressed against the wall by a hand exerting a force F inclined at an angle θ of 52° to the wall as shown below. The coefficient of static friction µstat between the block and the wall is 0.20. We shall investigate the question of how large the force F must be to keep the block from sliding along the wall. There is more physics here than initially meets the eye. Think...

A block of mass M = 10.0 kg is given an initial speed v0 = 2.10 m/s from height hi down a frictionless incline plane of angle θ = 75◦. After it reaches the bottom of the incline, it continues to slide on a horizontal surface of coeﬃcient of kinetic friction µk = 0.15. After sliding a distance d = 1.8 m along the horizontal surface, the block moves at a speed v = 7.00 m/s. Magnitude of acceleration due...

A(n) 6.7-g bullet is fired from a gun into a 0.90-kg block of wood held in a vise. The bullet penetrates the block to a depth of 9.00 cm. An identical block of wood (with no bullet inside) is next placed on a frictionless horizontal surface, and a second identical bullet is fired from the same gun into the block. How much smaller is the penetration depth in the second case? (Hint: The depth in the second case should be...
