In Fig. 8-46, a spring with k=170 N/mis at the top of a frictionless incline of angle=37.0. The lower end of the incline is distance D = 1.00 mfrom the end of the spring, which is at its relaxed length. A 2.00 kgcanister is pushed against the spring until the spring is compressed 0.200 mand released from rest. (a) What is the speed of the canister at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length (which is when the canister loses contact with the spring)? (b) What is the speed of the canister when it reaches the lower end of the incline?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The speed of the canister at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length is 2.40 m/s.

b) The speed of the canister when it reaches the lower end of the incline is 4.19 m/s .

Step by step solution

01

 Step 1: Given data:

Spring constant, k = 170 N/m

Angle, D=1.00m

Distance, D = 1.00 m

Mass, m = 2.00 kg

Spring compressed, x = 0.200 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8m/s2

Understanding the concept:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed - only converted from one form of energy to another. This means that the system always has the same amount of energy unless it is added from outside.

Using the principle of conservation of energy, this problem can be solved.

Ki+Ui=Kf+Uf

(a) Calculate the speed of the canister at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length:

All heights h are measured from the lower end of the incline (which is our reference

position for computing gravitational potential energy ).

Our x-axis is along the incline, with +X being uphill (so spring compression corresponds to X>0 ) and its origin being at the relaxed end of the spring. The height that corresponds to the canister's initial position is given by

h1=D+xsin

Energy conservation leads to,

K1+U1=K2+U20+mgD+xsin+12kx2=12mv2+mgDsin12mv22=mgD+x蝉颈苍胃-mgDsin+12kx2v22=2mgsinD+x-1m+22mkx2v2=2gsinD+x-1+kx2m

Substitute known values in the above equation.

Hence, the speed of the canister at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length is 2.40 m/s.

(b) Calculate the speed of the canister when it reaches the lower end of the incline:

In this case, energy conservation leads to the following equation.

K1+U1=K3+U30+mgD+xsin+12kx2=12mv32+0v32=2mgD+xsin+kx2mv3=2gD+xsin+kx2m

Substitute known values in the above equation.

v3=2x9.8m/s21+0.200sin37+170N/m0.200m22.00kg=19.6m/s21.2000.602+3.4N.kg/m=14.159m2/s2+3.4m2/s2=17.559m2/s2v3=4.19m/s

Hence, the speed of the canister when it reaches the lower end of the incline is 4.19 m/s.

In 1981, Daniel Goodwin climbed 443 m up the exteriorof the Sears Building in Chicago using suction cups and metal clips.

  1. Approximate his mass and then compute how much energy he had to transfer from biomechanical (internal) energy to the gravitational potential energy of the Earth-Goodwin system to lift himself to that height.
  2. How much energy would he have had to transfer if he had, instead, taken the stairs inside the building (to the same height)?

(Figure (a))applies to the spring in a cork gun (Figure (b)); it shows the spring force as a function of the stretch or compression of the spring. The spring is compressed by 5.5 cm and used to propel a 3.8 g cork from the gun. (a) What is the speed of the cork if it is released as the spring passes through its relaxed position? (b) Suppose, instead, that the cork sticks to the spring and stretches it 1.5 cm before separation occurs. What now is the speed of the cork at the time of release?
