In an industrial process, a spring launcher (with spring constant K=1900.0 N/m) mounted on top of a ramp is compressed to launch a box (mass 2.00 kg) down a long, inclined ramp (0=20.0 °) onto a conveyor belt. There is a force of kinetic friction of 8.50 N acting on the box as it slides down the ramp. The spring is compressed by'distance of 10.0 cm to launch the box. If the box travels 1.60 m along the ramp, determine the speed of the box at the bottom of the ramp. Include a sketch in your solution. Final speed?

A 6.00 ✕ 105 kg subway train is brought to a stop from a speed of 0.500 m/s in 0.400 m by a large spring bumper at the end of its track. What is the force constant k of the spring (in N/m)? (Enter a number.)
A 3 kg block is placed on frictionless horizontal surface next to a spring, sticking out horizontally from the wall; a Force applied to the block at 30° below horizontal is gradually increased, until –300 N (diagonal) has compressed the spring (–)0.20 m (horizontal). When the Force is removed suddenly, the block slides along frictionless floor and crosses 0.30 m long sandpaper (friction coefficient 0.66), before reaching a frictionless ramp. What is the block’s speed after crossing the sandpaper?

An orthodontic spring, connected between the upper and lower jaws, is adjusted to provide no force with the mouth open. When the patient closes her mouth, however, the spring compresses by 6.0 mm. What force is exerted if the spring constant is 160 N/m?
a 2 kg weight is fasten to a spring on an inclined plane. It has a spring constant of 20 N/m. When the spring is relaxed, the mass sits at the bottom of the incline. It is compressed 0.25 m from its relaxed position, and the weight is released. It goes down the incline, to the horizontal surface and up a second, identical incline. If there were kinetic friction between the weight and the right incline, but none between the weight and the left incline, what would be the coefficient of kinetic friction μk so the maximum height reachable is the same as the starting position (i.e. d=0.25m).
The cable of a 1170 kg elevator cab shown in the figure below snaps when the cab is at rest at a height ?=22.9m above a spring with spring constant ?=9.08×10^4N/m. Additionally a constant friction force created by the clamps sliding along the guide rails is experienced by the cab as it moves in the shaft with strength ?f=8.14×10^3N. (a) What isthe maximum distance xthe spring compresses? (b) What is the maximum acceleration experienced by the elevator during its movement described in the problem? Assume no static friction acting on the cab since we can imagine the clamps not engaging until the moment after the cab begins to fall. Also, note that the clamps stay engaged the whole time, including while the spring is being compressed and while the elevator is bouncing back up.
A 306 g mass slides down a curved incline then collides with a spring. The spring constant of the spring is 156N/m. Assume that friction is negligable in these problems. If the mass initially compresses the spring at 0.63 cm, what is the maximum height the mass rises to on the incline? Assume the mass is released from rest.
