The firing mechanism of a toy rifle is made up of a
spring whose constant is unknown. When the spring compresses 0.12m,
the rifle, if fired vertically, is capable of launching a 35g
projectile up to a maximum height of 20m above the position of the
projectile prior to firing. Ignore the friction forces and
determine the spring constant.
How fast is the projectile at point B?

The launch mechanism of a toy rifle is spring loaded with an unknown elongation constant. When the spring compresses 0.12 m and shoots vertically, the rifle is capable of launching a 35 g projectile at a maximum height of 20 m above the position when the projectile leaves the spring 20.0 m @ -0.120 m SAAAAA... a) What is the spring elongation constant (N / m)? b) How fast (m / s) is the projectile at point B?
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...
The launching mechanism of a popgun consists of a trigger released spring. The spring is compressed to a position yA and the trigger is fired. The projectile of mass m rises to a position yC above the position at which it leaves the spring. Consider a firing of the gun for which m = 30.0 g, yA = -0.140 m, and yC = 10.0 m. Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the spring constant _____ a. 302 N/m b. 84.6 N/m...
A toy car of mass 0.620 kg is pressed against a spring. The spring constant is 250 N/m and the spring is compressed a distance of 0.031 m. How fast is the cart moving after it's released from the spring? Ignore the effects of friction.
A 0.16 kg toy car has a spring-loaded bumper. The bumper has a constant of k = 1050 N/m. The toy is pressed against a wall and the spring compresses 5 cm. When the spring is released the car rolls on a flat surface and then up a hill. a) If there were no friction, how high up the hill should the car go?
A child's toy consists of a block that attaches to a table with
a suction cup, a spring connected to that block, a ball, and a
launching ramp. (Figure 1)The spring has a spring constant k, the
ball has a mass m, and the ramp rises a height y above the table,
the surface of which is a height H above the floor. Initially, the
spring rests at its equilibrium length. The spring then is
compressed a distance s, where...
You shoot a 54-g pebble straight up with a catapult whose spring constant is 310 N/m. The catapult is initially stretched by 0.30 m. How high above the starting point does the pebble fly? Ignore air resistance.
Renee is on Spring Break and pulling her 21-kg suitcase through the airport at a constant speed of 0.47 m/s. She pulls on the strap with 120 N of force at an angle of 38° above the horizontal. Assume the ground to be flat, Draw a FBD showing the forces on the suitcase. Find the acceleration of the suitcase. Determine the normal force experienced by the suitcase. Determine the total resistive force (friction) experienced by the suitcase. Find the coefficient...
