A block P of mass 0.8 kg undergoes the following motion : Step (1): P is pressed against a spring at A and then released . Afier (0.05 ¢, P loses contact with the spring and moves witha speed ‘Step 2): When P moves along AB, « lump of plasticine is dropped from 4 height slightly above P and slicks to it, The speed of P is reduced to 1.6 ms. ‘Step (3): P enters the rough portion and stops at point D . Calculate (the average force acting on the block by the spring in Step (), Gi) the mass of the pl ine, i) the distance BD, given that the fictional force between, P and the rough portion is 3 N. 7 marks) (©) —_Deseribe the energy change in Step (1).
