Chapter 3.4, Problem 1aT

Draw separate free-body diagrams for each block and for the spring immediately after release. Indicate separately the vertical forces (perpendicular to the table top) and the horinra1 forces (parallel to the table top). Clearly label all forces.

Chapter 3.4, Problem 1aT, Draw separate free-body diagrams for each block and for the spring immediately after release. , example  1

Identify all the Newton's third law (action-reaction) force pairs in your diagrams by placing one or more small "×" symbols through each member of the pair (i.e., mark each member of the first pair as Chapter 3.4, Problem 1aT, Draw separate free-body diagrams for each block and for the spring immediately after release. , example  2each member of the second pair asChapter 3.4, Problem 1aT, Draw separate free-body diagrams for each block and for the spring immediately after release. , example  3etc.).

To determine

The free body diagram of block and spring.

Explanation of Solution

Introduction:

Newtonian mechanics states that force never occurs singly in nature. Force is the mutual interaction between two bodies. The mutual forces are always equal and opposite in direction.

When the block is being apart, the spring force is acting towards the equilibrium position, and the block is coming towards each other as the spring is compressed.

In the vertical direction, force is acting on the block due to gravity.

The free body diagram in the vertical direction is shown in figure 1.

The free body diagram in horizontal direction is shown in figure 2.

Figure 2

Conclusion:

Therefore, the free body diagram in the vertical and horizontal direction is shown in Figures 1 and 2 respectively.
