Consider the following system: A spring has stiffness 598 N/m and is initially uncompressed. It is oriented vertically and placed on hard surface. A mass of size 2.3 kg is released from rest 9 m above the spring. Calculate the speed of the mass at the moment when the spring is compressed 0.5 m. Use g = 10 m/s2. (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
When a 3.0-kg block is pushed against a massless spring of force constant constant 4.5 × 103 N/m, the spring is compressed 8.0 cm. The block is released, and it slides 2.0 m (from the point at which it is released) across a horizontal surface before friction stops it. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface?
9. A vertically mounted spring (k = 900 N/m) is compressed by 24.0 cm relative to its unstrained length. A mass (m = 0.22 kg) is placed at rest against the spring. When the spring is released, the mass is launched vertically in the air. What is the speed of the mass (m) when it passes by a point located 9.02 m above the release point? m/s
Fred is using a slingshot (basically a big rubber band connected to a stick) to shoot a 182 g rock at a target. If the slingshot has a "spring constant" of 52 N/m and Fred pulls it back 42 cm. How fast will the rock leave the slingshot?
A package is fastened to the lower end of a light vertical spring and rests on a table. The package has a mass M and the upper end of the spring is fastened to a block of mass m. The upper block is pushed down by an additional force 3mg, so the spring compression is 4mg. In this configuration, the upper block is released from rest. The spring lifts the lower block off the table. What is the ratio of M/m that yields the greatest possible value for M? k M

A block with a mass m = 7.80 kg is attached to a lightweight spring with a spring constant k = 100 N/m that is attached to a wall. Initially the block is at rest and the spring is relaxed, as shown in figure (a). A second block with a mass mg = 7.00 kg is pushed up against block m, compressing the spring a distance A = 0.210 m, as shown in figure (b). The two blocks are released from rest, and both start moving to the right with negligible friction. IS a (a) When block m, reaches the equilibrium point, as shown in figure (c), block m, loses contact with block m,. Block m, continues to move right at a speed v. What is the speed v (in m/s)? m/s (b) Block m, continues to move right, reaching the point where the spring is at the maximum stretch (for the first time), as shown in figure (d). At this point, what is the distance D between the two blocks (in cm)? (Assume the widths of the blocks are much smaller than D.) cm
A block with mass mm = 0.200 kgkg is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of a ramp that is at an angle of 53.0∘∘ above the horizontal. The spring has 8.00 JJ of elastic potential energy stored in it. The spring is released, and the block moves up the incline. After the block has traveled a distance of 3.00 mm, its speed is 4.00 m/sm/s. 1)What is the magnitude of the friction force that the ramp exerts on the block while the block is moving?

A spring with a force constant of 12 N/m rests horizontally on a table and projects balls with a mass of 8.3 × 10-3 kg towards targets placed on the ground 93 cm below. If the spring is compressed by 4.0 cm, how far does the ball travel horizontally before it hits the ground?
An object of mass 6.25 kg slides down a hill of height 21.1 m. At the bottom of the hill is a spring with spring constant 53.6 N/m. How far is the spring compressed when the mass comes to rest? Assume the mass starts from rest at the top of the hill. Give your answer in meters to three significant figures.
