You are designing a delivery ramp for crates containing exercise equipment. The 1470 N crates will move at 1.8 m/s at the top of a ramp that slopes downward at 22.0°. The ramp exerts a 515 N kinetic friction force on each crate, and the maximum static friction force also has this value. Each crate will compress a spring at the bottom of the ramp and will come to rest after traveling a total distance of 5.0 m along the ramp. Once stopped, a crate must not rebound back up the ramp. Calculate the largest force constant of the spring that will be needed to meet the design criteria.

    K = 25351. 69 N / m

    Explanation:

    Given : Fk = 515 N, v = 1.8 m / s, d = 5.0 m, β = 22.0 °, m = 150 kg

    Using the work done by all forces at initial and the end can determine the constant of the spring

    Ws + We - Fk = Em - Ef

    - ¹/₂ * K * x² + m*g*h - F*d = 0 - ¹/₂ * m * v²

    Also the round motion part

    K * x = F + We

    K * x = F + m*g*h

    Replacing numeric to equal the equations and find the constant

    ¹/₂ * K * x² = 150*9.8 * 5 * sin (22°) - 5150 * 5 + ¹/₂*150 * (1.8m/s) ²

    K * x² = 421.358

    Now use the other equation

    K * x = 515 + 150*9.8 * sin (22°)

    K * x = 3268.35

    Both equation give x' as a

    x = 0.1289 m now using in any equation can find K

    K = 25351. 69 N / m
