The block in Fig. 7-10a lies on a horizontal frictionless surface, and the spring constant is 50N/m. Initially, the spring is at its relaxed length and the block is stationary at position x=0. Then an applied force with a constant magnitude of 3.0 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the x axis, stretching the spring until the block stops. When that stopping point is reached, what are (a) the position of the block, (b) the work that has been done on the block by the applied force, and (c) the work that has been done on the block by the spring force? During the block鈥檚 displacement, what are (d) the block鈥檚 position when its kinetic energy is maximum and (e) the value of that maximum kinetic energy?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The position of the block when the block stops moving, x=0.12 m
  2. The work done by the applied force on the block, Wa=0.36J
  3. The work done by the spring on the block, Ws=-0.36J
  4. The position of the block when kinetic energy is maximum, xc=0.06m
  5. The value of maximum kinetic energy, Kmax=0.09J

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the concept

We can use the equation of work done bythespring and the work done by the applied force to calculate the work done by each force respectively. To calculate the position of the block at maximum kinetic energy, we can take the derivative of equation of work and set it to zero that is we can use the extreme condition.

Formula:

Wa=-WsWs=-12kx2Wa=Fa.x

Given:

  1. The spring constant is,k=50N/m
  2. The applied force is, Fa=3.0N
  3. The initial position of the block is, xi=0
02

(a) Find the position of the block

The equation relating the work done by the spring force and the work done by applied force is

Wa=-WsFa.x=12kx2x=2Fak

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

x=23.0N50N/mx=0.12mx=23.0N50N/mx=0.12m

Therefore, the block is at x=0.12m.

03

(b) Calculate the work that has been done on the block by the applied force

The equation for the work done by the applied force is

Wa=Fa.x

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

Wa=3.0N0.12mWa=0.36J

Therefore, work done by applied force is 0.36J.

04

(c) Calculate the work that has been done on the block by the spring force

We have,

Wa=-Ws

So,

Ws=-0.36J

Therefore, work done by the spring force is, -0.36J.

05

(d) Calculate the block’s position when its kinetic energy is maximum

Let us assume that xcis the position at which kinetic energy is maximum

So,

dKdxatx=xc=0Conditionofmaxima

The work done is the change in kinetic energy.

So,

W=Wa-Ws=Kf-Ki

As, the block is at rest initially,Ki=0Hence, we get

K=F.x=12kx2dKdx=F-122kx0=F-122kxxc=Fk

Substituting this equation in the above condition of maxima, we get

xc=Fk=3.0N50N/mxc=0.06m

Therefore, kinetic energy is the maximum at xc=0.06m.

06

(e) Calculate the value of that maximum kinetic energy

Now, using xc=0.06min the equation of kinetic energy, we get

Kmax=3.0N0.06m-1250N/m0.06m2Kmax=0.09J

Therefore, the value of maximum kinetic energy is 0.09J

A standard interior staircase has steps each with a rise (height) of 19 cm and a run (horizontal depth) of 23 cm. Research suggests that the stairs would be safer for descent if the run were, instead, 28 cm.

On a spending spree in Malaysia, you buy an ox with a weight of 28.9 piculs in the local unit of weights: 1 picul =100 gins, 1 gin =16 tahils, 1 tahil =10 chees, and 1 chee =10 hoons. The weight of 1 hoon corresponds to a mass of 0.3779 g. When you arrange to ship the ox home to your astonished family, how much mass in kilograms must you declare on the shipping manifest?
