Question: The system shown is initially moving with the cable taut, and the 1 0 kg block moving down the rough inclined plane with a speed

The system shown is initially moving with the
cable taut, and the 10 kg block moving down the
rough inclined plane with a speed of 0.3ms. At
this instant in time the springs 1 and 2 have a
deflection of 25 mm and 50 mm , respectively, from
their static equilibrium positions. The value of the
spring constants are k1=200Nm and k2=100
Nm, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between
the block and the incline is =0.15. Using the
principles of work-energy, (a) determine the velocity
v of the block after it has traveled 100 mm distance
down the incline, and (b) calculate the distance
traveled by the block before it comes to rest. Both
the springs have negligible mass, and the pulleys are
massless and frictionless. Take g=9.8ms2(12+12)
The system shown is initially moving with the
