98% A 10-lb block is attached to an unstretched spring of constant k = 12 lb/in. Answered
Biology
The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the
Respect Scor e
plane are .6 and .4 respectively. If a force F is applied to the block until the
Engineering tension in the spring reaches 20 lb and then suddenly removed, determine
(a) how far the block will move to the left before coming to a stop, (b)
Business whether the block will then move back to the right.

2011-01-01 Physics Answers | 1327, A 10 lb block is …
k = 12 lb/in
the force needed for the block can move:
F=10*0.6=6 lb
when block stopped temporarily
v=0
conservation of energy
initial the stretched distance of spring
x0=20/12=1.67 inches

k*x02/2=k*x2/2+F*(x+x0) ; where x: is compressed distance

=> x=2/3inches
(b) the block will then move back t...
