A 10kg mass suspended at a height of 10 meters above a massless platform attached to a vertical spring with a stiffness constant of k 1000 N/m. Ignore air resistance, and g is 9.8 m/s?. You are not required to, but it is always helpful (and nice for me to see) if you make a drawing of the situation. a. When the mass is released it will fall onto the platform. By what length will the spring compress while the mass is in contact with the platform? b. Now consider the situation where the mass starts at the same height but is thrown downwards with an initial speed of 3 meters per second. What will the maximum compression of the spring be in this case? c. Does the answer to b change if the mass was thrown upwards at the same speed instead?

Marty Mcfly is riding a hover board (futuristic skateboard that flys with no rolling resistance) while being towed by a Delorean. Thoughout this problem you may assume the rope is of negligable mass. Marty's mass is my. 1. If the Delorean is traveling at a constant speed ep and there is no air resistance, with what force does Marty need to hold onto the rope? 2. If there is air resitance of magnitude FA pushing back on Marty, with what force does he need to hold the rope. 3. If there is air resitance of magnit ude FA and the Delorean is accelerating forward at acceleration a, with what force does Marty need to hold the rope. 4. Is the magnitude of the force that the Delorean pulls the rope with greater, smaller, or the same as the force Marty holds the rope with? Explain why.

PHYSICS IS FUN! W Hanging Sign A sign has a mass of 1050 kg, a height h = 1 m, and a width W = 4 m. It is held by a light rod of length 5 m that is perpendicular to a rough wall. A guy wire at 23° to the horizontal holds the sign to the wall. Note that the distance from the left edge of the sign to the wall is 1 m. Suppose we rely upon friction between the wall and the rod to hold up the sign (there is no hinge attaching the rod to the wall). What is the smallest value of the coefficient of friction u such that the sign will remain in place?
For the cube from problem 1, instead of having a person push the cube, we are going to attach a spring to it. The box is pulled to compress the spring 50 cm, then released. If the stiffness of the spring is 500 N/m, what acceleration will the cube experience? b. Now, we will move the cube and spring device to a smooth, tile floor, and we will place the cube on wheels. This will lead to some, non-negligible amount of friction. If the coefficient of static friction between the wheels and the floor is 0.07, what acceleration will the cube experience? Replace the single, large cube from the previous problems with two smaller cubes with the masses 5 kg, and 10 kg. Now we're back on the ice. The two cubes are side-by-side. Now a person pushes on box 1 with a force of 50 N at an angle of 30°. What is the acceleration of the boxes?
