- A 250-gram mass is placed on a vertically oriented spring that then is stretched 0.3 meters below its equilibrium position and released. If the spring constant is 125 N/m, how fast will the mass be moving when it reaches the equilibrium position? Hint: You cannot ignore the change in gravitational potential energy in this problem. Please give your answer in units of m/s.Two springs, each with spring constant k = 5.7 × 106 N m-¹ are used in a set of train buffers. The springs are initially at their equilibrium length, neither stretched nor compressed. A locomotive of mass m = 6.4 × 104 kg travels at a speed of v=2.0 m s¹ towards the buffers. By how much are the buffers compressed when the locomotive has been brought to rest? Give your answer by entering a number, specified to an appropriate number of significant figures, in the empty box below. (For simplicity, you should ignore any dissipation of energy in the buffers.)A spring is compressed by a 0.2 kg marble and held stationery. When released, the spring extends 4 cm forcing the marble to a velocity of 0.68 m/s. What is the spring constant, k, of the spring?
- A cork gun contains a spring whose spring constant is 17.0 N/m. The spring is compressed by a distance X=45 cm and used to propel from the gun a cork of mass 2.43 g. Assuming the cork is released when the spring passes through its rest length position Xeq, what is the speed of the cork as it is released from the spring?A 0.200-kg block along a horizontal track has a speed of 1.60 m/s immediately before colliding with a light spring of force constant 3.70 N/m located at the end of the track. (a) What is the spring's maximum compression if the track is frictionless? (b) If the track is not frictionless, would the spring's maximum compression be greater than, less than, or equal to the value obtained in part (a)? O greater O less O equal4. Suppose a block of mass m slides over a surface with kinetic friction coef- ficient towards a spring with spring constant k. The block reaches the spring with spring with speed vo. (a) How far is the spring compressed at maximum compression? Give your answer in terms of m, k, lk, and vo. (b) What is an expression for the maximum value that v。 could be in order for the spring to remain maximally compressed, no matter what material the block and surface are? Give your answer in terms of m, k, pk. Hint: the coefficient of static friction is always greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
- A 0.19 kg mass is held at rest against a compressed spring with a spring constant of 103 N/m. When released, the mass leaves the spring with a speed of 6.28 m/s. Assuming that the spring force is wholly responsible for changing the motion of the mass, by what distance was the spring initially compressed from its equilibrium position?
