A mass hangs from a vertical spring. It is pulled down, causing it to oscillate such that at thehighest point in the oscillation, the spring is compressed from its equilibrium position. Is there apoint in its motion such that all of the mass's energy is gravitational potential energy and notelastic potential energy or kinetic energy, assuming that gravitational potential energy equals 0at the bottom of the motion? Explain.LCArch

According to conservation of energy Total energy of isolated system is constant

An obnoxious brat assigns his 0.0217-kilogram pet mouse Mickey the role of stunt mouse by stuffing him into a spring gun and shooting him up into the air at some angle. During the launch process the spring transfers 0.713J of energy into the 'mouse+Earth+gravitational fields' system. Becasue he is fired at an angle, when Mickey reaches his maximum height, he is still moving horizontally with a speed of 2.29 m/s. How high above his initial location in the gun does Mickey soar? (In case you are worried, a miniature parachute opens at this point and Mickey lands safely. The brat is slightly less obnoxious than we thought.) Take g = 9.81 m/s?. Number
You have a spring witk k+388 N/m When no extrenal forceis applied on it, the length of the spring is 4.5 cm When you exert F+ 8.5 N of force to stretch this spring,what is the length of the stretched spring in the unit of cm?
A linear spring is compressed by 0.135 m from its equilibrium position. If it stores 6.1 J of energy in this state, what is its spring constant?
Using the spring force, F = -kx, calculate: a) The work done by an external force stretching the spring a distance L away from the equilibrium length. b) At a stretch length L, how much potential energy is stored in the spring? If a mass m is attached to the spring and released from a stretch length L, what is the maximum velocity c) of the mass? d) At what x coordinate does this maximum velocity occur?
