What is the kinetic energy of a 0.135 kg baseball thrown at 40.0 m/s?
2. Maria and Rory are using a spring launcher to move a 125 g block to the top of a ramp. The spring launcher is at the base of the ramp and consists of a platform and a spring with a force constant of 420 N/m. The horizontal surface at the base of the ramp is smooth and frictionless. They compress the spring by 0.12 m with the block resting against the spring launcher. Once they let go, the block travels up the 1.4 m ramp and comes to rest at the top of the ramp. The top of the ramp is 1.0 m above the ground. Ramp Experiment Ad= 1.4 m smooth frictionless surface What is the average frictional force acting on the block as it moves up the ramp? Ah=1.0 m
A block of mass m 8.2 kg slides on a rough surface and moves toward a spring with a spring constant k = 1874 N/m, as shown in the figure below. When the block is d = 17.4m away from the spring, it has a velocity of v. At the instant the block momentarily stops, it has compressed the spring by x = 30 cm. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface below is u = 0.37, what is the block's velocity, v =? Provide your answer in units of m/s using one decimal place. Take g = 9.80 m/s². k m d Answer:
A particle of mass m = 1.50 kg moves along one dimension and is subject to a single force, whose potential energy function is given by U(x) = x4 – 2x2 + 4 (where U is measured in Joules and x is measured in meters). At the moment when the particle is located at position x = 1.50 m, its speed is v = 2.50 m/s. %3D

A block with a mass m = 7.80 kg is attached to a lightweight spring with a spring constant k = 100 N/m that is attached to a wall. Initially the block is at rest and the spring is relaxed, as shown in figure (a). A second block with a mass mg = 7.00 kg is pushed up against block m, compressing the spring a distance A = 0.210 m, as shown in figure (b). The two blocks are released from rest, and both start moving to the right with negligible friction.

The spring in the muzzle of a child's spring gun has a spring constant of 705 N/m. To shoot a ball from the gun, first the spring is compressed and then the ball is placed on it. The gun's trigger then releases the spring, which pushes the ball through the muzzle. The ball leaves the spring just as it leaves the outer end of the muzzle. When the gun is inclined upward by 30° to the horizontal, a 57 g ball is shot to a maximum height of 1.84 m above the gun's muzzle. Assume air drag on the ball is negligible. (a) At what speed does the spring launch the ball? m/s (b) Assuming that friction on the ball within the gun can be neglected, find the initial compression distance of the spring. m
