Chapter 6, Problem 6.47E
A small glider is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of an air track that slopes upward at an angle of 40.0° above the horizontal. The glider has mass 0.0900 kg. The spring has k = 640 N/m and negligible mass. When the spring is released, the glider travels a maximum distance of 1.80 m along the air track before sliding back down. Before reaching this maximum distance, the glider loses contact with the spring. (a) What distance was the spring originally compressed? (b) When the glider has traveled along the air track 0.80 m from its initial position against the compressed spring, is it still in contact with the spring? What is the kinetic energy of the glider at this point?

an air-track glider of mass 0.100 kg is attached to the end of a horizontal air track by a spring with force constant 20.0 N/m. Initially the spring is unstretched and the glider is moving at 1.50 m/s to the right. Find the maximum distance d that the glider moves to the right if the air is turned off, so that there is kinetic friction with coefficient muk=0.47
The ball launcher in a pinball machine has a spring that has a force constant of 1.23 N/cm. The surface on which the ball moves is in- clined 15.6◦ with respect to the horizontal.
If the spring is initially compressed 3.58 cm, find the launching speed of a 0.19 kg ball when the plunger is released. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2 . Friction and the mass of the plunger are negligible.
A block falls from a table 6 m high. It lands on an ideal, massless, vertical spring with a force constant of 2.4 kN/m. The spring is initially 25 cm high, but it is compressed to a minimum height of 10 cm before the block is stopped. Find the mass of the block.

- A 1.00-kg object slides to the right on a surface having a coefficient of kinetic friction 0.250 (Fig. P7.68a). The object has a speed of vi = 3.00 m/s when it makes contact with a light spring (Fig. P7.68b) that has a force constant of 50.0 N/m. The object comes to rest after the spring has been compressed a distance d (Fig. P7.68c).

Find (a) the distance of compression d, (b) the speed v at the unstretched position when the object is moving to the left (Fig. P7.68d), and (c) the distance D where the object comes to rest.
