As shown in Figure 3(a), a wooden block B with mass mB = 2.4 kg on a rough inclined plane is connected to a massless spring ( k = 160 N/m ) by a massless cord passing over a pulley P of radius R = 0.25 m and mass Mp = 0.60 kg. The angle of the inclined plane is θ = 37∘ and the coefficients of static and kinetic frictions are μs = 0.35 and μk = 0.30 respectively. The frictional force at the axle of the pulley is negligible. The pulley can be regarded as a solid disk. (a) The system is at rest and in this case, block B is on the verge of sliding down. Figure 3(a) i. Indicate (with labeled arrows) the forces acting on the pulley and the block. ii. Calculate the tension in the string and the extension of the spring. (You can assume that the tensions in the cord on either side of the pulley P are the same for this part.) (b) As shown in Figure 3(b), another wooden block A of mass mA = 1.2 kg made of the same material as block B is released from rest. It slides down a distance l down the rough inclined plane and collides with block B. The two blocks stick together and move down the incline with a common velocity v = 0.80 m/s immediately after collision and the pulley rotates. The cord does not stretch and does not slip on the pulley. Figure 3(b) i. Determine the distance l. ii. Determine the acceleration of the two blocks at the moment they move down together and the pulley starts to rotate. iii. Determine how much further down the slope the two blocks move together after they collide before the two blocks come to a momentary rest.

Figure 1 Robin is pushing a crate up an inclined plane. Robin pushes with a force of FRC which is parallel to the plane. Robin moves the crate a distance d (measured parallel to the plane). There is ordinary surface friction between the crate and the plane. This question refers to the situation shown in Figure 1, above. Robin pushed the crate with a constant force and the crate moved at constant speed. The crate moved a distance d = 3.37 meters. The crate has a mass of 21.5 kg and the plane is inclined at an angle of 38.5 degrees above horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the plane is 0.22 . Assume the only forces acting on the box are the force exerted by Robin, the forces exerted by the inclined plane (this includes friction), and gravity (with g = 9.81 m/s2. Calculate the work done (in units of joules) on the crate by the inclined plane via the friction force (and only via the friction force) as the crate moved a distance d. (The sign of your answer, positive or negative, is important.)Figure 1 Robin is pushing a crate up an inclined plane. Robin pushes with a force of FRC which is parallel to the plane.

A spring (which behaves linearly both in tension and compression) when tested vertically in isolation, as shown in Figure 1, is found to stretch by x0 cm when it supports a mass of m1 kg. Figure 1 The spring extends by x0 cm when supporting an m1 kg mass The spring, along with a damper, is then attached horizontally to a trolley of mass 1360 kg, which is constrained to move only in the x-direction (see Figure 2). The spring is stretched some distance from its equilibrium position before being released. (a) (b) Figure 2 (a) A frictionless trolley is attached by a spring, with spring constant k and a damper with a damping coefficient χ. The trolley is shown in its natural rest position with its left-hand face at x = 0. (b) Free body diagram for the trolley shortly after being pulled to the right then released, with the spring under tension so, at this instant, its velocity is in the negative x-direction. (For clarity the damping force and normal reaction forces have been shown as acting at the point of their arrows - the spring force and weight are shown as acting at the tail of their arrows.)
