A 4.0 kg-block attached to a 20 N/m-spring constant spring moves on a frictionless horizontal surface, back and forth between -6.0 m and +6.0 m. How much distance the block travels in one period, in meters? our answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.

A block having a mass of 0.8 kg is given an initial velocity va = 1.2 m/s to the right and collides with a spring whose mass is negligible and whose force constant is k = 50 N/m as shown in figure. Suppose a constant force of kinetic friction acts between the block and the surface, with µk = 0.5, what is the maximum compression x, in the spring. %3D
A child’s toy consists of plastic attached to a spring. The spring is compressed against the floor at a distance of 2.69 cm, and the toy is released. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. If the toy has a mass of 115 g and rises to a maximum height of 64.5 cm, estimate the force constant of the spring in N/m.
