A 0.028-kg ball is launched vertically with an initial speed of 4.2 m/s. If air resistance is negligible, to what maximum height will the ball rise? (Use conservation of mechanical energy in answering this question.). 1. 2. An object that has been released from rest above Earth's surface gains kinetic energy as it falls. Where does the kinetic energy of the object come from?

I need help with this physics question #2
A 1.4 kg block is initially falling downward toward the top of a vertical spring. At the instant the block hits the top of this vertical spring (with a spring constant 1,110.1 N/m), the block is 0.5 m above the ground. After hitting the spring, the block compresses the spring until it is only 0.1 m above the ground. How fast was the block moving when it initially hit the top of the spring?
As a 16,400 kg jet plane lands on an aircraft carrier, its tail hook snags a cabie to slow it down. The cable is attached to a spring with spring constant 71,500 N/m. If the spring stretches 36 m to stop the plane, what was the plane's landing speed? m/s
Sara throws a baseball to Janice. The baseball has a mass of 0.142kg. It is 1.1m above the ground, moving at 15m/s when sara lets go of it. Ignore the effects of air resistance. The baseball is moving horizontally at 13m/s when it reaches maximum height. Calculate the maximum height reached by the baseball.
4. A 3 kg mass slides down an inclined plane that has an angle of 25 degrees. It starts at rest and travels a distance of 16 meters. What is its final velocity if Hk=0.15?

A 0.350 kg potato is tied to a string with length 2.80 m, and the other end of the string is tied to a rigid support. The potato is held straight out horizontally from the point of support, with the string pulled taut, and is then released. What is the speed of the potato at the lowest point of its motion? Take free fall acceleration to be 9.80 m/s2.
