The toy gun in the figure below consists of a spring with spring constant k. It is loaded with a projectile of mass m and the spring is compressed a distance d. The toy gun is fired horizontally and the bullet travels a total distance L within the toy gun before it is released.
A) Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the speed of the projectile vo once it exits the toy gun (i.e., express Vo in terms of the known quantities k, m, L, d).
B) Suppose now that there is an average friction force of magnitude ſ that acts on the projectile as it travels through the toy gun. If the final velocity of the projectile is vī, calculate f (i.e., find an expression for f in terms of k, m, L, d, and vi).
Thifs problem can be easily solved by using the work energy theorem which states that the work done by the All the forces equals the change in Kinetic energy.of the system.

The spring in a BB gun has a force constant of 1.8e4 N/m. When loaded, the spring is compressed a distance of 1.2cm. If the mass of the BB is 0.36g, then what is the speed of the BB as it is fired from the toy gun?
4. A spring gun with a spring constant, k = 50 N m , is loaded with a 60g ball and placed on a 1.5m high platform. (a) If the spring in the gun is compressed by 4.0cm, how fast would the ball be moving once it is fired and is no longer contacting the spring? answer (b) If the spring in the gun is compressed by 4.0cm, how far from the end of the gun will the ball travel...
(a) Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the spring constant.Answer should be in N/m.(b) Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the speed of the projectile as it moves through the equilibrium position of the spring (where x = 0), as shown in figure(b).Answer in m/s.
A spring-loaded gun of spring constant k=575 N/m is compressed a distance 35 cm (.35) before firing a 45 g dart. Assuming the gun is pointed horizontally, at what speed does the dart leave the gun. Please show work, thanks!
A spring-loaded toy gun projects a 5.2 g nerf pellet horizontally. The spring constant is 8.5 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 12 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.034 N exists between the barrel and the nerf pellet. If the spring is compressed 5.6 cm for this launch, determine the speed (in m/s) of the pellet as it leaves the barrel. (Assume the pellet is in contact with the barrel for the full length of the...
A toy gun uses a spring to project a 4.6-g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 8.0 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 14 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.031 N exists between barrel and projectile. With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel if the spring was compressed 6.5 cm for this launch? (Assume the projectile is in contact with the barrel for the full 14 cm.) m/s
A toy gun uses a spring to project a 5.5-g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 8.0 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 14 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.033 N exists between barrel and projectile. With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel if the spring was compressed 6.0 cm for this launch? (Assume the projectile is in contact with the barrel for the full 14 cm.) _____m/s
a 20 gram dart is loaded into a toy dart gun and the spring loader is compressed 14cm. the dart is launched and exits with a muzzle velocity of 5m/s. what is the spring constant of the spring loader.
A toy gun uses a spring to project a 6.2 g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 11.0 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 12.6 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.030 N exists between barrel and projectile. With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel if the spring was compressed 7.0 cm for this launch? (Assume the projectile is in contact with the barrel for the full 12.6 cm.)
A dart gun consists of a spring (k = 367 N/m) and a 25.0 g dart. When the dart is loaded into the gun, the spring is compressed 7.0 cm. The gun is aimed straight up and fired. a) How high does the dart go, ignoring air resistance of course? b) How fast is the dart going when it comes back down to the horizontal level at which it was fired?
