A block of mass m = 3.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 580 N/m. It is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 26° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.13. In the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.18 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. Take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero.a. If the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, L in meters, will the block travel before coming to rest? The spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion. L=
A 5 kg block is attached to a spring of constant k = 2400 N/m. The coefficient of friction between the block and the ground is 0.4. Under its initial condition, a force F is applied to the block until the restoring force of the spring reaches 100 N. To reach its final condition, the applied force F is removed. Then, the block moves and the spring returns to its unstretched position. Use 9.81m/s^2 for the gravity. a) Using the formula Fspring=kx, determine the distance in meters of the block from its unstretched position until it has a restoring force of 100N. b)Determine the work done by friction in Joules from the initial position (stretched) to its final position (unstretched). c)If the total work done on the system is 1.2658 J, determine the final velocity of the block (by relating work and kinetic energy)

Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2 = 103 N/m. The brick is not connected to the first spring and may slide freely. Part (a) How far d2, in meters, will the second spring compress when the brick runs into it? Part (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 μk = 0.5. If the distance between the springs is x = 1 m, how far d2, in meters, will the second spring now compress?

A 0.28 kg mass is held against a compressed spring with a spring constant of 2,446 N/m. The mass is initially at rest upon a horizontal surface and the spring force is directed parallel to the plane of the surface.

A spring with a spring constant of k = 192 N/m is initially compressed by a block a distance d = 0.23 m. The block is on a horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction μk, static friction μs, and has a mass of m = 7 kg. How large would the coefficient of static friction μs need to be to keep the block from moving? Recall that to keep the block from moving, the acceleration is zero. Assuming the block has just begun to move and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.2, what is the block's acceleration in meters per square second?
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

A glider of mass 0.240 kg is on a horizontal track, attached to a horizontal spring of force constant 6.00 N/m. There is friction between the track and the glider. Initially the spring (whose other end is fixed) is stretched by 0.100 m and the attached glider is moving at 0.400 m>s in the direction that causes the spring to stretch farther.
