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...
(8c8p15) A 4.6 g marble is fired vertically upward using a spring gun. The spring must be compressed 6.5 cm if the marble is to just reach a target 10 m above the marble's position on the compressed spring. What is the change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system during the 10 m ascent? Submit Answer Tries 0/8 What is the change in the elastic potential energy of the spring during its launch of the marble? Tries...
A 28 g ball is shot from a spring gun whose spring has a force constant of 367 N/m. The spring can be compressed 3 cm. How high will the ball go if the gun is aimed vertically? The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . Assume that at the end of the barrel, the spring’s displacement and the ball’s height are each zero. Answer in units of m.
A railroad car of mass 1.85e4 kg moving at 3.14 m/s collides and couples with two coupled railroad cars, each of the same mass as the single car and moving in the same direction at 1.24 m/s. b) How much kinetic energy is lost in the collision?

You have been asked to design a "ballistic spring system to measure the speed of bullets. A spring whose spring constant is k is suspended from the ceiling. A block of mass M hangs from the spring. A bullet of mass m is tired vertically upward into the bottom of the block. The spring's maximum compression d is measured from its initial suspended position. Find an expression for the bullet's speed uh- Express your answer in terms of the variables...
