A mass of 5 kg is compressed 3.9 meters into one spring, held still, and released from rest. It travels over a horizontal surface, up an incline which has a height (not length) of 5 meters, and then travels over another horizontal surface. At the end of that surface is another spring with the same spring constant. The mass hits the second spring and eventually stops after compressing it 2.3 meters. What is the elastic potential energy of the second spring when it is fully compressed by the mass in Joules? No surfaces have friction.

A spring with a spring constant of 718 N/m lies on a horizontal surface and that surface is y = 0 m to calculate the gravitational potential energy. A mass of 3 kg is compressed 0.45 meters into the spring and held still. After the mass is released it slides over a horizontal surface in which a 3.4 meter portion of the surface has friction with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.30. After the horizontal surface, it travels up...
A mass of 9 kg is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and attached to a spring. The mass is compressed 0.69 meters on the spring from equilibrium and held still. It is then released and it travels across the horizontal surface, around a frictionless quarter circular ramp, and it is launched into the air vertically and reaches a maximum height of 6 meters above the ground. The same mass is then attached to the same spring and hung vertically...
A brick of mass m=0.49 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k1 = 639 N/m which has been compressed by a distance of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2 = 261 N/m. Part (a) How far, d2 in meters, will the second spring compress when the brick runs into it? Part (b) How fast, v in meters per second, will the brick...
1. An object of mass 10 kg is released at point A, slides to the bottom of the 30° incline, then collides with a horizontal massless spring, compressing it a maximum distance of 0.75 m. The spring constant is 500 N/m, the height of the incline is 2.0 m, and the horizontal surface is frictionless. (a) What is the speed of the object at the bottom of the incline? (b) What is the work of friction on the object while...
A 0.500 kg block rests (at x = 0) on a horizontal, frictionless surface as in the figure. The block is pressed back against a spring having a constant of k = 625 N/m, compressing the spring to xi = - 10.0 cm. Then the block is released, and it travels a distance d up an incline with ? = 300 from the horizontal. (10 points) a)What is the potential energy when the spring is fully compressed? b)What is the...
A mass of 2 kilograms is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface against an uncompressed spring with spring constant 943.4 N/m. The inclined portion of the surface makes at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.16 with the mass. The mass is pushed against the spring until it is compressed a distance 0.12 and then released. How high (vertically), in meters, does the mass rise from the original height before...
A 0.19 kg mass is held at rest against a compressed spring with a spring constant of 103 N/m. When released, the mass leaves the spring with a speed of 6.28 m/s. Assuming that the spring force if wholly responsible for changing the motion of the mass, by what distance was the spring initially compressed from its equilibrium position?
A spring is mounted horizontally. A crate, which has a mass of 8.5 kg is pressed against the spring with a force of 350N As a result the spring is compressed a distance of 82.0 cm The mass is then released and is allowed to slide along the horizontal surface which has friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the surface is 0.65 How much work will be done on the crate by the frictional force from...
Ball A (m 0.5 kg, I 0.7 MR2) is held at rest against a spring, compressed by a distance x-40 cm. The ball is released and move along a frictionless surface (Ho 4 m) until it collides with ball B (m- 0.25 kg, I- 0.5 MR2) which is at rest. After the collision, the two balls roll down a track (which has friction!) and leaves the track at a height, H,- 1m. Ball B goes to a height of HB-5m...
In the figure, a 2.6 kg block is accelerated from rest by a compressed spring of spring constant 660 N/m. The block leaves the spring at the spring's relaxed length and then travels over a horizontal floor with a coefficient of kinetic friction ?k = 0.272. The frictional force stops the block in distance D = 7.9 m. What are (a) the increase in the thermal energy of the block In the figure, a 2.6 kg block is accelerated from...
