1. If you were to launch a block (Block A) with m = 0.500 kg DOWN a ramp with an angle of depreciation of q = 15o below the horizontal, mk = 0.30, using a plunger with k = 100 N/m compressed by 0.040 m, what distance would you expect it to travel relative to the equilibrium position of the spring once the block was launched? Assume that frictional force on the block is only present once the spring releases the block at the equilibrium position. Use the forces and kinematics approach for this question.
2. Repeat Question 1, but this time use an energy approach to solve the problem, and show that the answers obtained are identical.
