The physics questions outlined in the provided exam cover various concepts including forces, momentum, work, and energy. The key principles needed to solve these problems involve the application of Newton’s laws, conservation of momentum, and the work-energy theorem.

To tackle the first question regarding the work done by the tension when pulling a mass M up an incline, we can start by discussing the forces involved. When the mass is raised to a height H, the work done by the tension is indeed equal to the gravitational potential energy change, thus: Wₜ = MgH. This holds true as long as the mass is moving at a constant speed, meaning the net work done is zero (the tension balances the gravitational force).

For the net work done when drawing the mass up the incline, since the speed remains constant, the net work should also be zero. To justify this, we apply the work-energy theorem which states that the net work done on the mass is equal to its change in kinetic energy, and since there's no change in speed, the net work is consequently zero.

Moving on to the spring question, it addresses the compression of a spring by a mass moving at velocity v. The relationship between kinetic energy and spring potential energy leads to the conclusion that the compression distance will affect the energy storage in the spring, determined by the equation for spring force: F = kx. Using energy conservation, we find if the spring is compressed to a certain distance, the mass must possess enough kinetic energy to account for that – as described by: KE_initial = KE_final + PE_spring.

As we dissect the scenario with the skater colliding with a wall and then bouncing off, we define momentum as p = mv. The change in momentum here is indeed significant; before the collision, the momentum is negative and after, it becomes positive. Therefore, the change is Δp = mv_final - (-mv_initial) = 2mv.

Concerning the Force against position question, evaluating the integral of the force function over the defined range [x₁, x₂] gives us the work done. Thus, we can compute this using the provided function of force over the interval between positions.

In questions involving collisions, momentum conservation laws are pivotal. For example, when two masses collide, one must apply the principle of conservation of momentum: m₁v₁i + m₂v₂i = m₁v₁f + m₂v₂f. By substituting known values into this equation, one can solve for the unknown velocities post-collision.

As for the asteroid falling towards Earth, calculating gravitational force involves leveraging Newton’s law of gravitation: F_G = G(m1*m2)/(r^2). The final velocity right before impact can be derived from energy conservation as well, converting potential energy into kinetic energy.

Lastly, regarding the soccer ball and block momentum problems while taking into account the effects of friction on motion, we would assess directional momentum components post-collision and leverage trigonometric principles for resolving momentum vectors in 2D.

In all these physics problems, careful illustration and labeling of figures as well as a thorough follow-through with dimensional analysis are critical in substantiating the methods and solutions presented.
