Question
AUS-6 Sean has designed a system to move 50.0kg shipping crates from a smooth (frictionless) floor onto a
rough ramp for which 4-0.225 that is inclined 35.0° from the horizontal. Each crate starts at rest
against a spring with a spring constant 8.60x10³N/m that is compressed 0.750m. When released, the
spring pushes the crate, which then leaves the spring and slides up the rough ramp. The crate comes to a
stop at a final height h₂ shown in the figure below.

Find the height h₂, in meters. Mechanical energy will not be conserved, so use WNC = AK + AU.
PE-1 A particle moves in one dimension and is subject to a conservative force, which is given
by the function F(x) shown below, where x is in meters and F is in Newtons.
F(x) = 3x²+x-5
a)
Find the corresponding potential energy function U(x), if the zero point of potential
energy is x = 0.
b) What is the potential energy of the particle (in Joules) at x = 3 meters?
C
