Question
I got everything but part E correct. Not sure about how to go about doing itThe block in the figure below lies on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to the free end of the spring, with a spring constant of 65 N/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 2.9 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the x axis, stretching the spring until the block stops.
Assume that the stopping point is reached.
(a) What is the position of the block?
.0892 m
(b) What is the work that has been done on the block by the applied force?
.259 J
(c) What is the work that has been done on the block by the spring force?
-.259 J
During the block's displacement, find the following values.
(d) The block's position when its kinetic energy is maximum.
.0446 m
(e) The value of that maximum kinetic energy.
_______ mJ
Explanation / Answer
maximum KE = 0.5 * k * x ^2 = 258mJ
