A box is pressed against a horizontal spring, compressing the spring from its relaxed length. The box is then released and the spring launches the box horizontally along a track that ends in a ramp, as shown above. The box has enough speed to leave the ramp, and the box reaches a maximum vertical height above the floor. Assume there is negligible friction between the box and the track and air resistance is negligible. K = spring constant of spring X = distance the spring is compressed M = mass box Theta = angle of ramp from horizontal H = maximum height reached by box The scenario is repeated using a different box with a greater mass. The spring is compressed the same distance x. Indicate how h in this second scenario compares to h in the original scenario, and explain why without mathematically deriving a relation for h. Students derive an equation for h in the original scenario, h= (sin2theta)kx2/2Mg, which may or may not be correct. Is this equation consistent with your claim…
