A spring of equilibrium length L1 and spring constant k1 hangs from the ceiling. Mass m1 is suspended from its lower end. Then a second spring, with equilibrium length L2 and spring constant k2, is hung from the bottom of m1. Mass m2 is suspended from this second spring.

How far is m2 below ceiling?

    A mass m1=5.0 kg hangs suspended by a rope from an elevator ceiling. A second mass m2=5.0 kg hangs suspended by a rope from the bottom of mass m1. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.8 m/s in 0.80 s. The elevator travels with this constant speed for 5.0 s, undergoes a uniform negative acceleration for 1.5 s, and then comes to rest. Draw a FBD for each mass Find the tension in each rope...

    A spring hangs from the ceiling with an unstretched length of xo -0.75 m. A m 5.9 kg block is hung from the spring, causing the spring to stretch to a length x,-1.06 m. Find the length Ax of the spring when a m2 1.7kg block is hung from the spring. For both cases, all vibrations of the spring are allowed to settle down before any measurements are made. AR nt
