Consider the blocks on the curved ramp as seen in the figure. The blocks have masses m1 = 2.00 kg and m2 = 3.90 kg, and are initially at rest. The blocks are allowed to slide down the ramp and they then undergo a head-on, elastic collision on the flat portion. Determine the heights (in m) to which m1 and m2 rise on the curved portion of the ramp after the collision. Assume the ramp is frictionless, and h = 4.10 m. hm1 = m hm2 = m

Two blocks are free to slide along the frictionless wooden track shown below. The block of mass m1 = 4.97 kg is released from the position shown, at height h = 5.00 m above the flat part of the track. Protruding from its front end is the north pole of a strong magnet, which repels the north pole of an identical magnet embedded in the back end of the block of mass m2 = 9.20 kg, initially at rest. The two blocks never touch. Calculate the maximum height to which m1 rises after the elastic collision. m

Consider a frictionless track as shown in the figure below. A block of mass m1 = 2.00 kg is released from point (A) from a height of h = 1.15 m. It makes a perfectly inelastic collision at point (B) with a block of mass m2 = 2.00 kg that is initially at rest. After the collision, the block of mass m2 moves to the right and collides with a spring at point ( C . The spring is attached to a wall and has a spring constant of 8.59 kN/m. (a) Calculate the energy loss during the collision. Enter the magnitude. J (b) Calculate the maximum compression of the spring. cm (c) Instead of an inelastic collision, consider a head-on elastic collision at point B. During this specific elastic collision when the masses are equal, m1 transfers its kinetic energy to m2 and as a result, m1 comes to rest. Calculate the maximum compression of the spring. cm

Starting from rest, a small block of mass m = 0.25 kg slides down an incline from a height h = 1.2 m. As it slides down, the block experiences a force of kinetic friction of constant magnitude fk = 2.1 N only over a distance L = 0.2 m, as shown in the figure. The incline is frictionless everywhere else. After reaching the bottom of the incline, the block strikes a larger block of mass M = 1.8 kg that is attached to a spring of spring constant k = 6.5 N/m. The large block was originally at rest. The blocks stick together upon impact and travel together on the frictionless horizontal surface. Assume that both blocks are subject to the regular force of gravity (g = 9.80665 m/s2). (a) Determine the speed of the small block right before it collides with the larger block. Answer: m/s (b) Determine the speed of the combination of the two blocks immediately after the collision. Answer: m/s (c) Determine the compression of the spring when the combination of the two blocks comes to rest. Answer: m
