A spring with force constant equal to 120N/m is standing vertically. A mass equal to 0.300kg is dropped onto the spring from a height of 2.0m above the uncompressed end of the spring. How far is the spring compressed when the mass and end of the spring come to rest? (I think you need to use Energy of conservation formula)

    A vertical spring with a spring constant of 460 N/m is mounted on the floor. From directly above the spring, which is unstrained, a 0.30 kg block is dropped from rest. It collides with and sticks to the spring, which is compressed by 2.3 cm in bringing the block to a momentary halt. Assuming air resistance is negligible, from what height (in cm) above the compressed spring was the block dropped?

    4. A spring is hanging vertically with its bottom at a height of 1 m. We attach a 1 kg mass to the spring, and see that, after we gently lower it and let go, the bottom of the spring is at height of 0.95 m. Draw an energy interaction diagram starting at the moment the mass is attached and ending when the mass comes to rest. What is the value of the spring constant for this spring? Part 1:...
