First, we calculate the elastic constant of the spring. Remember that:
1) The potential energy can be calculated as:
2) at his position v = 0, then K = 0
3) Due the surface is frictionless, there is no lost of energy, so the total mechanic energy is conserved, then:
4) In this case: , so , then:
solving for vo:
5) Due the conservation of energy, the total mechanics energy at this position:
6) In this position, x = 0.200 m, so the potential energy is giving by:
then:

A spring has an unstretched length of 11 cm . It exerts a restoring force F when stretched to a length of 12 cm. For what total stretched length of the spring is its restoring force 3F? At what compressed length is the restoring force 2F?
A spring has a relaxed length of 36 cm (0.36 m) and its spring stiffness is 9 N/m. You glue a 83 gram block (0.083 kg) to the top of the spring, and push the block down, compressing the spring so its total length is 19 cm. You make sure the block is at rest, then at time t = 0 you quickly move your hand away、The block begins to move upward, because the upward forc.e on th€ block by...

A particle with a mass of 0.5 kg rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to the free end of the spring: The particle is pulled horizontally so that it stretches the spring 5.0 cm and is then released from rest at t 0. (a) What is the force constant of the spring? (b) What are the period, frequency, f,...

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.66N/m has a relaxed length of 0.182m. A mass of 0.026kg is attached and you stretch the spring to a total length of 0.384m. The mass is then released from rest. What is the speed of the mass at the moment when the spring returns to its relaxed length of 0.182m? v= Submit Answer Tries 0/99
+ -/1 points HRW6 8.CQ.02. A spring is initially stretched by 3.0 cm from its relaxed length. Below are four choices for changing the initial stretch. (a) to a stretch of 2.0 cm (b) to a compression of 2.0 cm (c) to a compression of 4.0 cm (d) to a stretch of 4.0 cm Rank the choices according to the changes they make in the elastic potential energy of the spring, most positive first, most negative last. (d), (a), (b),...
A spring with a relaxed length of 25 cm and a stiffness of 13 N/m stands vertically on a table. A block of mass 73 g is attached to the top of the spring. You pull the block upward, stretching the spring until its length is now 31.7 cm, hold the block at rest for a moment, and then release it. Using a time step of 0.1 s, predict the position and momentum of the block at a time 0.2...
A 14 kg block on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 5.7 kN/m. The block is pulled to the right so that the spring is stretched 15 cm beyond its relaxed length, and the block is then released from rest. The frictional force between the sliding block and the surface has a magnitude of 44 N. (a) What is the kinetic energy of the block when it has moved 3.0 cm from...
A spring hanging from a hook has a relaxed length of 8.1 cm with no mass attached to it. When a 0.41 kg mass is hung from the spring the spring stretches to a new equilibrium length of 12 cm. The mass is then pulled downward an additional 5.8 cm from the equilibrium position and released from rest. How fast (in m/s) is the mass moving when it first passes through the original equilibrium position of the spring (the relaxed...
