n your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 248 g mass, a 40.0-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You’re curious about the free-fall acceleration on Planet X, where ordinary tasks seem easier than on earth, but you can’t find this information in your Visitor’s Guide. One night you suspend the spring from the ceiling in your room and hang the mass from it. You find that the mass stretches the spring by 31.2 cm. You then pull the mass down 10.0 cm and release it. With the stopwatch you find that 10 oscillations take 14.5 s. Can you now satisfy your curiosity What is the spring constant of your spring?

A cube of a mass m=0.37 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k1=656 N/m which has been compressed by a distance of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2=181N/m. The cube is not connected to the first spring and may slide freely. I found (a) and (b). I just need help with (c). a). How far d2, in meters, will the second spring compress when thee cube runs into it? 0.19 m. (answer) b). How fast v, in meters per second, will the cube be moving when it strikes the second spring? 4.21 m/s (answer) c). Now assume friction is present on the surface in between the ends of the springs at their equilibrium lengths, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is uk=0.5. If the distance between the springs is x=1m, how far d2, in meters, will the second spring now compress?
An astronaut lands on a foreign world and wants to measure the local gravitational field strength where he lands. He takes a 0.31m length pendulum and holds it 4 degrees from the vertical. He then releases the pendulum and measures that it takes 7.85 seconds for the pendulum to swing through 10 cycles of swing. What is the gravitational field strength on the planet?
A mass of 1kg is attached to a spring with a spring constant of k=10 N/m. you stretch the spring to distance A from equilibrium and let go. The mass oscillates with a certain period, frequency, and total energy. Now stretch the spring to a distance of 3A. compared to the original total energy E, what is the new total energy of the system now?
