Question: A relaxed spring of lengthstands vertically on the floor; its stiffness is. You release a block of mass from rest, with the bottom of the blockabove the floor and straight above the spring. How long is the spring when the block comes momentarily to rest on the compressed spring?

Short Answer

Answer

The spring is long when the block comes momentarily to rest on the compressed spring.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of the elastic potential energy 

The elastic potential energy is the energy acquired as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic item. The energy is stored until the force is removed, at which point the object reverts to its original shape and resumes its function. During the deformation process, the object could be crushed, stretched, or twisted.

02

Finding polynomial for gravitational and elastic potential energies

Let is the relaxed length of the spring, and is its final compressed length.

EI = EF

No non-conservative forces act on the system so, the initial energy is equal to the final energy. Equate both the energies.

In the initial state there is only gravitational potential energy, and in the final state, both gravitational and elastic potential energies will present.

Take reference at the floor for the gravitational potential energy and write the initial and final energies into the last equation.

mgh =12ksl0- l2+ mglmgh =12ksl02- 2l0l +l2+ mgl0 =12ksl2+mg -ksl0l +12ksl02- mgh

03

Calculation for the length of the spring 

Substitute , ks=1000N/m,m =0.4 kg , g=9.8m/s2,I0=0.15mand h =0,8 into the obtained equation and solve for .

Take the negative sign and do the further calculation.

0=121000l2+0.49.8-10000.15l+1210000.152-0.49.80.80=500l2-146l+8.114l=146(-146)2-4(500)(8.114)2(500)=14671.331000

I = 0.0747 m

Therefore, the length of spring obtained is 0.0747 m .

A horizontal spring鈥攎ass system has low friction, spring stiffness 200N/mand mass0.4kg. The system is released with an initial compression of the spring of10cm and an initial speed of the mass of3m/s.

(a) What is the maximum stretch during the motion?

(b) What is the maximum speed during the motion?

(c) Now suppose that there is energy dissipation of 0.01 J per cycle of the spring鈥攎ass system. What is the average power input in watts required to maintain a steady oscillation?

8.01020kgA package of mass 9kgsits on an airless asteroid of massand radius 8.7105m. We want to launch the package in such a way that it will never come back, and when it is very far from the asteroid it will be traveling with speed 226 m/s. We have a large and powerful spring whose stiffness is 2.8105N/m. How much must we compress the spring?

Design a 鈥渂ungee jump鈥 apparatus for adults. A bungee jumper falls from a high platform with two elastic cords tied to the ankles. The jumper falls freely for a while, with the cords slack. Then the jumper falls an additional distance with the cords increasingly tense. You have cords that are 10 mlong, and these cords stretch in the jump an additional 24 mfor a jumper whose mass is 80 kg, the heaviest adult you will allow to use your bungee jump (heavier customers would hit the ground). You can neglect air resistance. (a) Make a series of five simple diagrams, like a comic strip, showing the platform, the jumper, and the two cords at various times in the fall and the rebound. On each diagram, draw and label vectors representing the forces acting on the jumper, and the jumper鈥檚 velocity. Make the relative lengths of the vectors reflect their relative magnitudes. (b) At what instant is there the greatest tension in the cords? How do you know? (c) What is the jumper鈥檚 speed at this instant? (d) Is the jumper鈥檚 momentum changing at this instant or not? (That is, isdp-/dtnonzero or zero?) Explain briefly. (e) Focus on this instant, and use the principles of this chapter to determine the spring stiffnessksfor each cord. Explain your analysis. (f) What is the maximum tension that each cord must support without breaking? (g) What is the maximum acceleration (in鈥檚) that the jumper experiences? What is the direction of this maximum acceleration? (h) State clearly what approximations and estimates you have made in your design.
