A ball of mass m = 1.80 kg is released from rest at a height h = 65.0 cm above a light vertical spring of force constant k as in Figure P5.64a. The ball strikes the top of the spring and compresses it a distance d = 9.00 cm as in Figure P5.64b. Neglecting any energy losses during the colli- sion, find (a) the speed of the ball just as it touches the spring and (b) the force constant of т the spring. ь Figure P5.64

Given: A shooting guard throws a basketball m = 1 kg straight up with an initial speed of v0 = 5.5 m/s. He releases the ball at shoulder height h0 = 1.95 m. Let gravitational potential energy be zero at ground level. Give the total mechanical energy of the ball E in terms of maximum height hm it reaches, the mass m, and the gravitational acceleration g. What is the height, hm in meters?
A mass of 25kg is attached to a spring (k=650N/m) and is hung from a ceiling. The mass is released at a height h when the spring is unstretched. a) What is the speed of the mass when it has fallen a distance of 0.30m? b) What is the minimum release height (h) if the mass does not strike the floor? Both parts answered.
The figure here shows a plot of potential energy U versus position x of a 0.876 kg particle that can travel only along an x axis. (Nonconservative forces are not involved.) Three values are UA = 15.0 J, Ug = 35.0 J and Uc = 45.0 J. The particle is released at x = 4.50 m with an initial speed of 7.96 m/s, headed in the negative x direction.

To make a pendulum, a 300 g ball is attached to one end of a string that has a length of 1.4 m and negligible mass. (The other end of the string is fixed.) The ball is pulled to one side until the string makes an angle of 30.0 with the vertical; then (with the string taut) the ball is released from rest. Find (a) the speed of the ball when the string makes an angle of 20.0 with the vertical and (b) the maximum speed of the ball. (c) What is the angle between the string and the vertical when the speed of the ball is one-third its maximum value?
