(The complete question is in the picture) Consider a 2.0 [kg] box that is attached to two identical springs that are in their relaxed state when the block is centered on the frictionless horizontal floor. The box is pressed to the left and then was released from rest as shown in the figure. If work done by the left spring is Wby spring = 25 [J], what is the speed of the boxas it passes the center x = 0? A. 8.2 [m/s]B. 7.1 [m/s]C. 3.5 [m/s]D. zero
The lower block of mass m2 = 3.2 kg is pulled on by a rope with a tension force of 28 N. The upper block has mass m1 = 1.8 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the lower block and the surface is 0.32. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the lower block and the upper block is also 0.32. What is the acceleration of the 3.2 kg block?
Find the downward acceleration of m1 if it has a mass of 27.8 kg and the kinetic coefficient of friction of m2 and m3 to the surface has the same value of 0.2.
Once the spring has lost contant with the force sensor, is the linear momentum of the two cart system constant or not constant?
You wish to put a 1000-kg satellite into a circular orbit 300 km above the earth’s surface. (a) What speed, period, and radial acceleration will it have? (b) How much work must be done to the satellite to put it in orbit? (c) How much additional work would have to be done to make the satellite escape the earth? In part (b) if we ignored the satellite’s initial kinetic energy due to the rotation of the earth. How much difference does this make? Suppose your personal spacecraft is in a low-altitude circular orbit around the earth. Air resistance from the outer regions of the atmosphere does negative work on the spacecraft, causing the orbital radius to decrease slightly. Does the speed of the spacecraft (i) remain the same, (ii) increase, or (iii)
A 500kg car travels at 16 m/s when the driver takes his foot off the gas and coasts. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the rolling tires and the road is 0.5, calculate the acceleration of the car and if the car coasted for a total of 2.0 s find it's final velocity.
What allows us to make the determination that the boxes arent moving at the same velocity after being released from rest? It seems to me we would base this off of each boxes resistance to friction, but in this problem they are moving on a smooth surface. And then in this problem, we consider the boxes to move at the same velocities after the spring is released? Please explain how we can make this judgement. This is the problem: The two blocks A and B each have a mass of 5 kg and are suspended from parallel cords. A spring, having a stiffness of k=60 N/m is attached to B and is compressed 0.3 m against A and B as shown. Determine the maximum angles θ\thetaθ and ϕ\phiϕ of the cords when the blocks are releasedfrom rest and the spring becomes unstretched.

An empty freight car with a mass of 10,000 kg rolls at 5 m/s along a level track and collides with a loaded car with a mass of 20,000 kg, standing at rest with brakes released. Friction can be neglected. If the cars couple together, find their speed after the collision. a. Find the decrease in kinetic energy as a result of the collision. b. With what speed should the loaded car be rolling towards the empty car for both to be brought to rest by the collision? Please show the given, formula, figure, and free body diagram.
In a skating jump, a skater rotates around their vertical central axis. Duringthe jump, the skater's rotation rate is increased by bringing their arms intotheir side. a) When bringing their arms into their side, do es the rotational kinetic energyof the skater go up, go down or stay the same? If it changes, where do es theenergy for this change come from or go to? b) Show that the change in rotational kinetic energy of the skater ∆KR canb e found by (see image) here KRi is the initial rotational kinetic energy of the skater, ωf is the nalangular sp eed and ωi is the initial angular speed. c) During the jump, when the skater draws their outstretched arms inwards,what total torque is acting on the skater if their final rate of rotation is tworotations p er second? d) After landing again, the skater is able to stop rotating and come to acomplete standstill in 0.7s.

the P platform is located on a spring and is tied to the ground with lines so that they cause the spring to deflect from a free state of 1 m to 0.4 m. Next, a brick with a mass of 2 kg was placed on the platform and the spring was loaded by 0.1 m, and then the platform with the brick was released so that the brick was shot up to the height h. Determine the height h in relation to the ground. Assume the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m / s ^ 2. k = 250 N/m
