Physics students design an experiment to measure assorted coefficients of friction using a set-up similar to the one shown (not drawn to scale). A small balloon containing sand with a combined mass of 98.2gg is suspended with an ideal string of length 86.6cmcm, forming a simple pendulum. The pendulum is released from an angle of 41.4∘∘ with the vertical, and it collides with a block of mass 333gg located where the pendulum string becomes vertical. Because the balloon weighted with sand is soft and deformable, the collision is totally inelastic. The block slides for a distance of 30.8mmmm before coming to rest. a) Calculate the speed, in meters per second, of the sand-filled balloon at the instant prior to the collision. b) Calculate the speed, in meters per second, of the block at the instant following the collision. c)

A scene in a movie has a stuntman falling through a floor onto a bed in the room below. The plan is to have the actor fall on his back, but a researcher has been hired to investigate the safety of this stunt. When the researcher examines the mattress, she sees that it effectively has a spring constant of 77144N/mfor the area likely to be impacted by the stuntman, but it cannot depress more than 13.33cmwithout injuring him.To approach this problem, consider a simplified version of the situation. A mass falls through a height of 3.92mbefore landing on a spring of force constant 77144N/m. Calculate the maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance.
