#33 The block shown lies on a horizontal frictionless surface, and the spring constant is 62 N/m. Initially, the spring is at its relaxed length and the block is stationary at position x = 0. Then an applied force with a constant magnitude of 4.1 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the a axis, stretching the spring until the block stops. When that stopping point is reached, what is the position of the block in meters? x = 0 Block F = 0 elllllll attached to spring
A 2.0 kg block is pressed up against a spring (k = 44 N/m) that is attached to a wall as shown. The block is held so that there is 1.2 J stored in the spring and then the block is released from rest. If there is no friction, what is the speed of the block when the energy stored in the spring is 0.0 J?

Below is a conservation of energy problem. The solution to this problem is provided. Assess whether the solution provided is correct or incorrect AND EXPLAIN WHY. = 4.6 kg block is at rest against a horizontal spring that is compressed by 0.40 m. The spring has a spring constant of k₁ 2750 N/m. After leaving the spring, it travels up a 28° incline to a height of 2.8 m. At the top of the hill is a second spring with a spring constant of k₂ = 350 N/m. The horizontal portions are frictionless, but the hill has a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to uk = 0.16.

Answer parts a, b and c of the following question.7. a) You want to store 1,000 J of energy in an ideal spring when it is compressed by only 2.5 cm. What should be the force constant (spring constant) of this spring? b) A very light ideal spring having a spring constant (force constant) of 8.2 N/cm is used to lift a 2.2-kg tool with an upward acceleration of 3.25 m/s2. If the spring has negligible length when it us not stretched, how long is it while it is pulling the tool upward? c) How fast must a 6.0-kg cat run to have a kinetic energy of 150 J?
4. Here we prove a version of the work-kinetic energy theorem for an object moving in 1-D subject to a constant force. Consider a mass m, traveling initially at speed v, on which a constant net force F is applied in the same direction as its motion over a distance d. After the net force has acted over this distance, the speed of the object is v2. In terms of m, F, v1, v2, and d only, V, A) What is the acceleration of the mass? t=0 m F d t>0_m B) What is the time over which the mass travels the V, distance d? [Use one equation of constant acceleration to find this.] C) Use another equation of constant acceleration to relate m, F, v,, v2, and d. Show that the product W = Fd is equal to the change in the mass’s kinetic energy.
If the net work done on an object as it moves is positive, what can we infer about it's Kinetic Energy? Kinetic Energy Increases Kinetic Energy Decreases Kinetic Energy remains the same Kinetic Energy is zero What happens to the total energy of an object if the sum of the net forces acting on it is zero? Energy increases Energy decreases Energy is zero Energy remains constant
Two blocks with masses 0.342 kg (A) and 0.719 kg (B) sit on a frictionless surface. Between them is a spring with spring constant 27.7 N/m, which is not attached to either block The two blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring by 0.270 meter, after which the system is released from rest. What is the final speed of the block A? (Hint: you will need to use both conservation of energy and conservation of momentum to solve this problem).
How far the block will compress the spring after fall back from its maximum height?
A mouse is on a crazy roller coaster which has five distinct phases. The mouse in his roller coaster car has a mass of 6 kg. The mouse starts the coaster by being pulled back 0.2 m into a spring with a spring constant of 1890 N/m. How much elastic potential energy does the mouse have as he starts his ride? After the spring is released, the mouse travels over the first hill, effectively coming to rest at the top. Calculate the height of the first hill? He then speeds into a valley. At the bottom of the valley 3 J of energy is lost due to friction. What is his total remaining energy after he travels through the valley? The mouse then travels over a 0.10 m hill. How fast is the mouse traveling over the hill at point D? The mouse finally makes it to the final phase of the ride, where he will race along at ground level. How fast is he traveling at point E?
