Two cars are moving. The first car has twice the mass of the second car, but only half as much kinetic energy. Then, both cars increase their speed by 8.00 m/s. They then have the same kinetic energy. The original speeds of the two cars are, respectively, 22.6 m/s, v2 = 11.3 m/s. (A) V1 = 5.66 m/s, v2 = 11.3 m/s. V1 = 14.1 m/s, v2 = 7.07 m/s. V1 = 11.3 m/s, v2 = 5.66 m/s.
Two blocks with masses 0.342 kg (A) and 0.719 kg (B) sit on a frictionless surface. Between them is a spring with spring constant 27.7 N/m, which is not attached to either block The two blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring by 0.270 meter, after which the system is released from rest. What is the final speed of the block A? (Hint: you will need to use both conservation of energy and conservation of momentum to solve this problem).

It will launch a 25 g projectile to a range of 2.15 m when it is launched at an angle of 45 degrees. You can use this information to find the initial velocity of the ball, of course, (and you should). Therefore, you should be able to calculate how much energy the spring in the projectile launcher must impart to the ball as it is being launched. The ball is pushed back 7.5 cm in the projectile launcher in order to getit ready to fire. What is the spring constant of the projectile launcher?
