A box of mass m=125 kg on a horizontal frictionless surface is pressed against (but is not attached to) an ideal spring of spring constant k=970 N/m and negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance x=0.16 m from the springs equilibrium position. After it is released, the box slides up a frictionless incline as shown in the figure. What is the maximum height the box rises when it travels up the incline before coming to rest and then sliding back down? (Use the conservation of the total mechanical energy)

Two identical springs, both of force constant k=200 N/m, are fixed at opposite ends of a level track. A 5.0 kg block is pressed against the left spring, compressing it by 0.15 m.

A spring lies on a horizontal table, and the left end of the spring is attached to a wall. The other end is connected to a box. The box is pulled to the right, stretching the spring. Static friction exists between the box and the table, so when the spring is stretched only by a small amount and the box is released, the box does not move. The mass of the box is 0.75 kg, and the spring has a spring constant of 77 N/m. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the table on which it rests is us = 0.59. How far can the spring be stretched from its unstrained position without the box moving when it is released?
