### A 500 g block is released from rest and slides down africtionless track that begins h = 1.80 m above the horizontal, as shown in Figure. At the bottom of the track, where the surface ishorizontal, the block strikes and sticks to a light spring with aspring constant of 25.0 N/m. Find themaximum distance the spring is compressed.

### A spring of negligible mass stretches 3.00 cm from its relaxed length when a force of 8.50 N is applied. A 0.530-kg particle rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to the free end of the spring. The particle is displaced from the origin to x = 5.00 cm and released from rest at t = 0. (Assume that the direction of the initial displacement is positive.) (a) What is the force constant of the spring? 280 N/m (b) What are the angular frequency (?), the frequency, and the period of the motion? ? = 23.121 rad/s f = 3.6817 Hz T = 0.27161 s (c) What is the total energy of the system? 0.35 J (d) What is the amplitude of the motion? 5 cm (e) What are the maximum velocity and the maximum acceleration of the particle? ${v}_{max}=1.1561\frac{m}{s}$ ${a}_{max}=26.73\frac{m}{{s}^{2}}$ (f) Determine the displacement x of the particle from the equilibrium position at t = 0.500 s. (g) Determine the velocity and acceleration of the particle when t = 0.500 s. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) v = _________________ $\frac{m}{s}$ a = _________________ $\frac{m}{{s}^{2}}$

### In an inkjet printer, letters are built up by squirting drops of ink horizontally at a sheet of paper from a rapidly moving nozzle. The Pattern on the paper is controlled by an electrostatic valve that determines at each nozzle position whether ink is squirted onto thepaper or not. The ink drops have a radius 15.0$\mu m$ and leave the nozzle and travel horizontally toward the paper at speed v=18.0 m/s . The drops pass through a charging unit that gives each drop a positive charge by causing it to lose some electrons. The drops then pass between parallel deflecting plates of length ${D}_{0}=2.45$ cm , where there is a uniform vertical electric field with magnitude $E=8.40×{10}^{4}$ N/CIf a drop is to be deflected a distance d= 0.270 mm by the time it reaches the end of the deflection plate,what magnitude of charge q must be given to the drop? (Assume that the density of the ink drops 1000 $k\frac{g}{{m}^{3}}$, and ignore the effects of gravity.)

### An extreme skier, starting from rest, coasts down a mountainthat makes an angle ${25.0}^{\circ }$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between her skis and the snow is 0.200. She coasts for a distance of 11.9 m before coming to the edge of a cliff. Without slowing down, she skis offthe cliff and lands down hill at a point whose vertical distance is 4.20 m below the edge. How fast is she going just before she lands?
