Problem 10: A block of mass m = 0.22 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k = 513 N/m which has been compressed by a distance of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along y a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of kɔ = 496 N/m. The block is not connected to the first spring and may slide freely.

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. hord L m 1oooooooo m A
A block of mass m = 5.33 kg is attached to a spring that is F(N) resting on a horizontal, frictionless table. The block is pushed 5- into the spring, compressing it by 5.00 m, and is then released 4 from rest. The spring begins to push the block back toward the equilibrium position at x = 0 m.

During spring semester at MIT, residents of the parallel buildings of the East Campus dorms battle one another with large catapults that are made with surgical hose mounted on a window frame. A balloon filled with dyed water is placed in a pouch attached to the hose, which is then stretched through the width of the room. Assume that the stretching of the hose obeys Hooke's law with a spring constant of 120 N/m. If the hose is stretched by 2.30 m and then released, how much work does the force from the hose do on the balloon in the pouch by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length? Number i Units
Block A in Fig. has mass 1.00 kg, and block B has mass 3.00 kg. The blocks are forced together, compressing a spring S between them; then the system is released from rest on a level, frictionless surface. The spring, which has negligible mass, is not fastened to either block and drops to the surface after it has expanded. Block B acquires a speed of 1.20 m/s. (a) What is the final speed of block A? (b) How much potential energy was stored in the compressed spring?
An ideal spring is attached to the ceiling. While the spring is held at its relaxed length, a wooden block (M = 850 g) is attached to the bottom of the spring, and a ball of clay (m = 210 g) is pressed onto the bottom of the block so that they stick together. The block+clay are gently lowered through a distance of d = 2.7 cm and are then released, at which point they hang motionlessly from the bottom of the spring. After a few minutes have passed, the clay unsticks itself from the block and falls from rest to the ground. 1. What is the resulting period T of the block’s oscillation after the separation occurs? 2. As d approaches 0, what limit does T approach?

A block of mass M = 8 kg rests on a horizontal frictionless floor, and is connected to a vertical wall by a spring of force constant k = 200 N/m. When the spring is in its equilibrium position (neither stretched nor compressed), the block just touches a second lighter block of mass m = 4 kg at rest on the frictionless floor. The spring with mass M attached is now compressed by 0.1 m and released. The two blocks undergo a completely inelastic collision, i.e., they stick together after collision. Draw a diagram and define all relevant variables. Just before the collision, what is the velocity of mass MT Just after the collision, what is the common velocity of the two blocks? (What is the maximum stretching of the spring after the collision?: How long after the collision do the masses reach their first maximum stretch?

A block of mass 0.5 kg on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass and spring constant 50 N/m. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall, and there is negligible friction between the block and the horizontal surface. When the spring is unstretched, the block is located at a = 0.0 m.
