Question
A block of mass (m = 12 kg) is attached at its top to a string that goes up and loops over a pulley. The
end of the string is then attached to a second block of mass (m = 16 kg) that hangs freely. The bottom of
the 12 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant (k = 120 N/m). This spring is then attached to
the floor.
a) What is the stretch in the spring from its relaxed position?
6) If the spring was detached from the 12 kg block, what would the acceleration of the two blocks be?
