Question

A 1.40-kg block is on a frictionless, 30 ∘ inclined plane. The block is attached to a spring (k = 40.0 N/m ) that is fixed to a wall at the bottom of the incline. A light string attached to the block runs over a frictionless pulley to a 60.0-g suspended mass. The suspended mass is given an initial downward speed of 1.60 m/s .

How far does it drop before coming to rest? (Assume the spring is unlimited in how far it can stretch.)
Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer 1

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

because the block is attached to the pulley of the string
