a block of mas \( m \) = 4.8 kg slides head on into a spring of spring constant \( k \) = 430 N/m. When the block stops, it has compressed the spring by 5.8 cm. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and floor is 0.28. \( (g =9.8m/s^2) \)

See explanation below

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The missing part of this question is the following:

"While the block is in contact with the spring and being brought to rest, what are (a)the work done by the spring force and (b) the increase in thermal energy of the blockfloor system? (c) What is the blocks speed just as it reaches the spring?"

According to this we need to calculate three values: Work, Thermal Energy and Speed of the block when it reaches the spring.

Let's do this by parts.

a) Work done by the spring:

In this case, we need to apply the following expression:

W = -1/2 kx²  (1)

We know that k = 430 N/m, and x is the distance of compressed spring which is 5.8 cm (or 0.058 m). Replacing that into the expression:

W = -1/2 * 430 * (0.058)²

b) Increase in thermal energy

In this case we need to use the following expression:

ΔEt = Fk * x   (2)

And Fk is the force of the kinetic energy which is:

Fk = μk * N   (3)

Where μk is the coeffient of kinetic friction

N is the normal force which is the same as the weight, so:

N = mg (4)

Let's calculate first the Normal force (4), then Fk (3) and finally the chance in the thermal energy (2):

N = 4.8 * 9.8 = 47.04 N

Fk = 0.28 * 47.04 = 13.1712 N

Finally the Thermal energy:

ΔEt = 13.1712 * 0.058

c) Block's speed reaching the spring

As the block is just reaching the speed, the initial Work is 0. And the following expression will help us to get the speed:

V = √2Ki/m   (5)

And Ki, which is the initial kinetic energy can be calculated with:

Ki = ΔU + ΔEt   (6)

And ΔU is the same value of work calculated in part (a) but instead of being negative, it will be positive here. So replacing the data first in (6) and then in (5), we can calculate the speed:

Ki = 0.7233 + 0.7639 = 1.4872 J

Finally the speed:

V = √(2 * 1.4872) / 4.8

Hope this helps

from 1609, galileo galilei used the recently invented telescope to observe the sun, moon and planets. he saw the mountains and craters of the moon, and for the first time revealed the planets to be worlds in their own right. galileo also provided strong observational evidence that planets orbited the sun.

his discoveries about the moon, jupiter's moons, venus, and sunspots supported the idea that the sun - not the earth - was the center of the universe, as was commonly believed at the time.galileo turned his gaze toward venus, the brightest celestial object in the sky - other than the sun and the moon.

answer: i think he can see forward ten seconds and move forward ten seconds but giorno can undo his actions with ger.
