When Crates A and B of mass ma = 38 kg and mB = 74 kg are released from rest, Crate A moves to the right
= 0.2 ). The force P = 18 Newtons is always acting on Crate B. The linear spring
on a rough surface (u:
has a stiffness of k = 480 N and is initially stretched 0.5 meters before the system is released from rest.
m
Neglect the mass of the pulleys and cables and neglect friction in the pulley bearings. Determine the work
done by the external force P (in Joules) when Crate A has moved a distance of 0.5 meters to the right.

3. A mass m (2.0 kg) is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k (25 N/m)
which is held stretched a distance x = 0.25 m from its relaxed position by a force,
and then released. The spring compresses, pulling the mass. Assume there is
no friction. a. Determine the speed of the mass when the spring returns to its
relaxed position. b. Determine the speed of the mass when the spring is
compressed by x/2.
The system shown below is released from rest. The static and kinetic coefficients of friction between slider
A and the rail are 0.8 and 0.2, respectively. Consider massless-frictionless pulleys and massless cable. Mass
of slider B is 15 kg and force P= 25 Newtons is always acting on it. If the acceleration of slider B during the
motion is 5 m to the right, determine the tension developed in the cable in Newtons. Consider g =10 m.
