Question

A 11.0 kg stone slides down a snow-covered hill (the figure (Figure 1) ), leaving point A with a speed of 11.0m/s . There is no friction on the hill between points Aand B, but there is friction on the level ground at the bottom of the hill, between B and the wall. After entering the rough horizontal region, the stone travels 100 m and then runs into a very long, light spring with force constant 2.30 N/m . The coefficients of kinetic and static friction between the stone and the horizontal ground are 0.20 and 0.80, respectively.

NEED PART B:

How far will the stone compress the spring?

ANSWER: ______________ m

Explanation / Answer

Initial KE = m v^2 /2 = 11 x 11^2 /2 = 665.5 J

work done by gravity = mgh = 11 x 9.81 x 20 = 2158.2 J

work done friction = uk mg d = 0.20 x 11 x 9.81 x (100 +d)= - (2158.2 + 21.58d )

work done by sprijng = - kd^2 /2

using work energy theorem, ,

2158.2 - (2158.2 + 21.58d ) - kd^2 /2 = 0 - 665.5

1.15d^2 + 21.58d - 665.5 = 0

d =16.44 m
