A frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 39.0°. A sled starts at the bottom with an initial speed of 4.90 m/s up the incline. When the sled reaches the point at which it momentarily stops, a second sled is released from the top of the incline with an initial speed vi. Both sleds reach the bottom of the incline at the same moment.

(a) Determine the distance that the first sled traveled up the incline.
m

(b) Determine the initial speed of the second sled.
m/s

Answer #1

Concept: acceleration for both the sleds will be same down the incline. We use equations of kinematics to find the time and then distance and initial speed as shown below

A 4.25 kg block is projected at 5.40 m/s up a plane that is inclined at 30.0° with the horizontal. The block slides some distance up the incline, stops turns around and slides back down to the bottom. When it reaches the bottom of the incline again, it is traveling with a speed of 3.80 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is 0.500, how far up the incline did the block slide?

A block of mass m = 3.3 kg is on an inclined plane with a coefficient of friction μ1 = 0.39, at an initial height h = 0.53 m above the ground. The plane is inclined at an angle θ = 44°. The block is then compressed against a spring a distance Δx = 0.13 m from its equilibrium point (the spring has a spring constant of k1 = 35 N/m) and released. At the bottom of the inclined plane...

A box with 10 kg of mass slides down an inclined plane that is 1.7 m high and 3.5 m long. Due to friction the box reaches 3.0 m/s at the bottom of the inclined plane. Beyond the inclined plane lies a spring with 650 N/m constant. It is fixed at its right end. The level ground between the incline and the spring has no friction The box compressed the spring, got pushed back towards the incline by the spring....
