(a) What is the kinetic energy (KE) of the bow/arrow system once the bow is released and reaches its equilibrium position? [no E-S-A necessary] (b) What is the speed of the arrow as the bow reaches its equilibrium position? [E-S-A...Round to the 0. 1 m/s]

4. Suppose you fire a mass m straight vertically upwards from a spring that is known to have been compressed a distance x from its equilibrium position, and the mass reaches a maximum height of h above its launch point. Using the conservation of energy, derive an expression for the spring constant k of the spring.
Below is a conservation of energy problem. The solution to this problem is provided. Assess whether the solution provided is correct or incorrect AND EXPLAIN WHY. = 4.6 kg block is at rest against a horizontal spring that is compressed by 0.40 m. The spring has a spring constant of k₁ 2750 N/m. After leaving the spring, it travels up a 28° incline to a height of 2.8 m. At the top of the hill is a second spring with a spring constant of k₂ = 350 N/m. The horizontal portions are frictionless, but the hill has a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to uk = 0.16. The final velocity of the block is 9.78 m/s. How much is the second spring compressed by when the block comes to a stop against it?

A 0.1 kg disk is shot across a frictionless horizontal surface by compressing it against a spring and releasing it. The spring has a spring constant of 380 N/m and is compressed from its equilibrium position by 6.2cm when the disk to a complete stop. As the disk gets released from the spring, what will be the speed (in m/s) of the disk when the spring is compressed by 3.8cm?
