A 3.00 kg box that is sliding on frictionless surface with a speed of 15 m/s approaches a horizontal spring. The spring has a spring constant of 1900 N/m. m 10000000 How far will the spring be compressed in stopping the box? Submit Answer Tries 0/10 How far will the spring be compressed when the box's speed is reduced to half of its initial speed? Note: This is not saying that the box starts with half of the original speed, the box still starts with 15 m/s, the question asks how far the spring will have been compressed when it has slowed the box to half of that speed.

A block with a mass 3.7 kg is sitting on a frictionless ramp with a spring at rhe bottom that has a spring constant of 540 N/m. The angle of the ramp in respect to the horizontal is 36 degrees. 1) the block starts from rest and slides down the ramp a distance of 69cm before hitting the spring. how far is the spring compressed as the block comes to momentary rest? 2) after the block comes to rest the spring pushes the block back up the ramp. how fast is the block moving right after it comes off the spring. 3) what is the change in gravitational potential energy between the original positiion of the block at the top of the ramp and the position of the block when the spring is fully compressed?
