A horizontal spring with force constant k = 665 N/m is attached to a wall at one end and to a block of mass m = 2.35 kg at the other end that rests on a horizontal surface. The block is released from rest from a position 4.30 cm beyond the spring's equilibrium position. (a) If the surface is frictionless, what is the speed of the block as it passes through the equilibrium position? m/s(b) If the surface is rough and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is ?k = 0.300, what is the speed of the block as it passes through the equilibrium position? m/s
A spring with spring constant 20 N/m is compressed a distance of 5.5 cm by a ball with a mass of 208.5 g (see figure below). The ball is then released and rolls without slipping along a horizontal surface, leaving the spring at point A. The process is repeated, using a block instead, with a mass identical to that of the ball. The block compresses the spring by 5.5 cm and is also released, leaving the spring at point A. Each object travels up the incline shown in the figure before coming to rest momentarily. Assume the ball rolls, but ignore other effects of friction. (Assume the ball rolls without slipping up the incline until it comes to rest.) (a) How high above the starting position is the ball when it comes to rest momentarily? m (b) How high above the starting position is the block when it comes to rest momentarily? m
A 2.00kg block is pushed against a spring with negligible mass and force constant k = 435 N/m , compressing it 0.215 m. When the block is released, it moves along a frictionless, horizontal surface. Find its velocity after the release?
A spring with a spring constant of 369 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.064 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.031 kg is then held against the compressed spring and released from rest while upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. Assuming that the spring then pushes the mass across the surface, with speed does the mass leave the spring? Assume proper SI Units.
A spring with a spring constant of 349 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.072 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.056 kg is then held against the compressed spring and released from rest while upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. Assuming that the spring then pushes the mass across the surface, with speed does the mass leave the spring? Assume proper SI Units.
Mickey, a daredevil mouse of mass 0.0221 kg, is attempting to become the world's first "mouse cannonball." He is loaded into a spring-powered gun pointing up at some angle and is shot into the air.

Two identical springs, both of force constant k=200 N/m, are fixed at opposite ends of a level track. A 5.0 kg block is pressed against the left spring, compressing it by 0.15 m. The block (initially at rest) is then released. The entire track is frictionless except for the section between A and B. Given that the coefficient of friction between block and track is 0.08 and the length of AB is 0.25 m, determine where the block comes to rest, as measured from A. Give the given and solution

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.8 N/m has a relaxed length of 16 cm (0.16 m). A mass of 22 grams (0.022 kg) is attached and you stretch the spring to a total length of 29 cm (0.29 m).
