A 5 kg block starts from rest at the top of a smooth incline 6.0 m long that makes an angle of \(30^{\circ}\) with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is 0.20. At the bottom of the incline the block compresses a horizontal spring of spring constant \(k = 800\ \text{N\,m}^{-1}\) and comes to rest after compressing the spring. (a) Calculate the maximum compression of the spring. (b) Assuming the compression occurs uniformly over a time interval of 0.50 s, determine the average power delivered by the block to the spring during this interval.

Answer Options

A. Maximum compression \(x \approx 0.60\,\text{m}\); average power \(\approx 2.3\times10^{2}\,\text{W}\).
B. Maximum compression \(x \approx 0.35\,\text{m}\); average power \(\approx 1.5\times10^{2}\,\text{W}\).
Correct Answer C. Maximum compression \(x \approx 0.49\,\text{m}\); average power \(\approx 1.92\times10^{2}\,\text{W}\).
D. Maximum compression \(x \approx 0.42\,\text{m}\); average power \(\approx 1.8\times10^{2}\,\text{W}\).
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Maximum compression \(x \approx 0.49\,\text{m}\); average power \(\approx 1.92\times10^{2}\,\text{W}\).
