A block of mass 0.250 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5 000 N/m and pushed downward so that the spring is compressed by 0.100 m. After the block is released from rest, it travels upward and then leaves the spring. To what maximum height above the point of release does it rise?
A block of mass m = 2.50 kg is pushed a distance d = 2.20 m along a frictionless, horizontal table by a constant applied force of magnitude F = 16.0 N directed at an angle = 25.0 below the horizontal as shown in Figure P6.3. Determine the work done on the block by (a) the applied force, (b) the normal force exerted by the table, (c) the gravitational force, and (d) the net force on the block. Figure P6.3
A sled of mass 70 kg starts from rest and slides down a 10 incline 80 m long. It then travels for 20 m horizontally before starting back up an 8° incline. It travels 80 m along this incline before coming to rest. What is the magnitude of the net work done on the sled by friction?

A childs pogo stick (Fig. P7.69) stores energy in a spring with a force constant of 2.50 104 N/m. At position (x = 0.100 m), the spring compression is a maximum and the child is momentarily at rest. At position (x = 0), the spring is relaxed and the child is moving upward. At position , the child is again momentarily at rest at the top of the jump. The combined mass of child and pogo stick is 25.0 kg. Although the boy must lean forward to remain balanced, the angle is small, so lets assume the pogo stick is vertical. Also assume the boy does not bend his legs during the motion. (a) Calculate the total energy of the childstickEarth system, taking both gravitational and elastic potential energies as zero for x = 0. (b) Determine x. (c) Calculate the speed of the child at x = 0. (d) Determine the value of x for which the kinetic energy of the system is a maximum. (e) Calculate the childs maximum upward speed.

A block of mass 0.500 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x (Fig. P7.79). The force constant of the spring is 450 N/m. When it is released, the block travels along a frictionless, horizontal surface to point , the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1.00 m, and continues to move up the track. The blocks speed at the bottom of the track is = 12.0 m/s, and the block experiences an average friction force of 7.00 N while sliding up the track. (a) What is x? (b) If the block were to reach the top of the track, what would be its speed at that point? (c) Does the block actually reach the top of the track, or does it fall off before reaching the top?
Consider a block of mass 0.200 kg attached to a spring of spring constant 100 N/m.

Jane, whose mass is 50.0 kg, needs to swing across a river (having width D) filled with person-eating crocodiles to save Tarzan from danger. She must swing into a wind exerting constant horizontal force F, on a vine having length L and initially making an angle with the vertical (Fig. P7.81).

The Flybar high-tech pogo stick is advertised as being capable of launching jumpers up to 6 ft. The ad says that the minimum weight of a jumper is 120 lb and the maximum weight is 250 lb. It also says that the pogo stick uses a patented system of elastometric rubber springs that provides up to 1200 lbs of thrust, something common helical spring sticks simply cannot achieve (rubber has 10 times the energy storing capability of steel). a. Use Figure P8.32 to estimate the maximum compression of the pogo sticks spring. Include the uncertainty in your estimate. b. What is the effective spring constant of the elastometric rubber springs? Comment on the claim that rubber has 10 times the energy-storing capability of steel. c. Check the ads claim that the maximum height a jumper can achieve is 6 ft.
