If a 3.15 kg object is placed on a frictionless incline of 70.5 º and released from rest, what is speed of the object down the incline after traveling a distance of 1.5 m? Enter a number rounded to 2 decimal places and assume it has proper SI units.
A train is traveling up a 2.88° incline at a speed of 4.31 m>s whenthe last car breaks free and begins to coast without friction. (a) Howmuch time does it take for the last car to come to rest momentarily? (b) How far did the last car travel before momentarily coming to rest?
A mass of 7.0 kg hangs from a spring attached to the ceiling. The spring has a spring constant of 500
N/m and it stretches 13.7 cm from its mean position. A student grabs the spring and stretches it a
further 5.3 cm downwards. Calculate the force applied by the student. (Units: N, to 2 sig figs)
