    1. A crate of mass 10.0 kg slides down a ramp 30.0 m long that makes an angle of 15 with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is f-LK - 0.1.

    (C). A second ramp, identical to the first one (same angle \vith respect to the horizontal and same coefficient of kinetic friction with respect to the crate) is placed so that its bottom is touching the bottom of the first ramp, forming a V-shape. Thus, as the crate finishes sliding down the first ramp, it begins to slide up the second ramp. How far up the second ramp does it travel before it stops moving (and then afterward starts sliding down again)?

    2. Two equal masses of'm, = 5.0 kg are attached to either end of a spring with spring constant k = 50.0 N1m and zero rest length. Initially the masses are both at rest at x = 0 on a frictionless surface with the spring at its rest length.

    At time t = 0 a force whose magnitude depends on time as

    F = 10.0 N/s x t (pointing from left to right) is applied to horizontally on the left mass for a time f:::"t = 2 s. Before t = 0 and after t = 2 s, the force is zero.

    (A). Determine the impulse applied to the system. from t = 0 s to t = 2 s.

  • 3. An electron of mass 'me = 9.1 X 10-31 kg n10ves with a speed of 1.0 x 107 m/s. It undergoes a collision with a second electron which is originally sitting rest. After the collision, one electron moves out with speed 6.0 x 106 TP/s and its path makes an angle with respect to the original axis of the collision and the other electron has a speed of 8.0 x 106 m/s and its path makes an angle ewith respect to the original collision axis. -
