Consider two masses, both with mass M, attached to a spring with spring constant k. They slide along angled rails, and the angle between the rails is theta. There is no friction: the masses slide freely along the rails. Assume that the masses move together so that the spring remains parallel to its equilibrium position. The masses are initially moving upwards such that the spring is being stretched past its equilibrium length. Describe what happens next, by using Newton's second law to identify the equation of motion, solving that equation to determine the motion of this system, and then describing your result in words. (Do not consider gravity in this question, consider the masses and the spring lying flat on a horizontal surface)

A massless rod with length L is
attached to two springs at its two masses (both m) at its two ends.
The masses are connected to springs. The springs can move in the
horizontal and vertical directions as shown in the figure and they
both have a stiffness k. Note that gravity acts. Assume the springs
are un-stretched when the rod is vertical. Find the equation of
motion for the system using 1. Newton’s second law 2. Conservation

A spring of spring constant k=261 N/m is attached to a block of mass 1.38 kg and stretched horizontally to a position 15.0 cm from the springs equilibrium position. The spring and mass are released and oscillate in simple harmonic motion across a frictionless horizontal surface. What is the maximum speed obtained by the mass? m/s

connected to the spring and placed on a frictionless horizontal
surface at the relaxed position of the spring. You then hang mass

massless cord, over a pulley at the edge of the horizontal surface.

A 0.20 kg mass is attached to a spring with a spring constant equal to 240 N/m, and this mass-spring system is oscillating on a horizontal surface that is nearly frictionless. The spring was originally stretched a distance of 0.12 meters from its equilibrium (unstretched) length. a) How much did the potential energy of this mass-spring system change when the spring was originally stretched 0.12 meters? b) What is the maximum speed the mass will attain in its oscillation? c)...
