Question
Problem #1
A student pushes the 1.25 kg block in the figure below against a horizontal
spring, compressing it by 0.175 m.
k
x = 0
*max !
v=0
y=0
The left end of a horizontal spring is attached to a vertical wall, and when
released, the block travels across a horizontal surface and up an incline.
Neglecting friction, find the block's maximum height (in m) if the spring
constant is k = 645 N/m. (The acceleration of gravity is g = 9.80 m/s².)
