In the figure, a block of mass m = 17 kg is released from rest on a frictionless incline of angle θ = 33∘. Below the block is a spring that can be compressed 3.8 cm by a force of 160 N. The block momentarily stops when it compresses the spring by 6.7 cm. (a) How far does the block move down the incline from its rest position to this stopping point? (b) What is the speed of the block just as it touches the spring?

A hanging weight, with a mass of m1 = 0.360 kg, is attached by a string to a block with mass m2 = 0.850 kg as shown in the figure below. The string goes over a pulley with a mass of M = 0.350 kg. The pulley can be modeled as a hollow cylinder with an inner radius of R1 = 0.0200 m, and an outer radius of R2 = 0.0300 m; the mass of the spokes is negligible. As the weight falls, the block slides on the table, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is μk = 0.250. At the instant shown, the block is moving with a velocity of vi = 0.820 m/s toward the pulley. Assume that the pulley is free to spin without friction, that the string does not stretch and does not slip on the pulley, and that the mass of the string is negligible. (a) Using energy methods, find the speed of the block (in m/s ) after it has moved a distance of 0.700 m away from the initial position shown. m/s (b) What is the angular speed of the pulley (in rad/s) after the block has moved this distance? rad/s
