A rectangular block has its upper right corner carved out. The carved out portion is a quarter of a cylinder, yielding a circular slope of radius R. The remaining block has a mass M. A small bead of mass m is placed at the top of the slope. All contact surfaces are frictionless. Both the small bead and the block are initially at rest, and the bead slides down from the top of the circular slope. (a) Find the displacement of the block, i. e the distance and direction of its movement, when the small bead slides to the bottom of the circular slope and is just about to leave the block. (b) Find the speed of the small bead with respect to the ground when it reaches the bottom of the circular slope.

A crate of mass m is initially at rest at the highest point of an inclined plane which has a height of 6.83 m and has an angle of θ = 30.7∘ with respect to the horizontal. After it has been released, it is found to be traveling at v = 0.64 m/s a distance d after the end of the inclined plane, as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is μp = 0.1, and the coefficient of friction on the horizontal surface is μr = 0.2. Find the distance, d, in meters. d = m

(5) Two blocks of masses M and 4M are placed on a horizontal, frictionless surface. A light spring is attached to one of them, and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them, as seen in the figure below. A cord initially holding the blocks together is burned; after this the block of mass 4M moves to the right (the positive direction) with a speed of v1 = 2.38 m/s. (a) (b) (5a) What is the velocity of the block of mass M? (5b) Calculate the original elastic energy in the spring if M = 0.375 kg. Submit Answer Tries 0 /10
