A spring (k = 120 N/m) is arranged horizontally up against a wall. A 7.5-kg block is sitting on the floor and pushed back against the spring, compressing it 0.321 m. The floor is frictionless. The block is then released, allowing the spring to uncompress.
a.) What is the initial acceleration of the block?
b.) As the block keeps moving, what happens to its acceleration and why? Explain in a sentence or two.
c.) As the block keeps moving, what happens to its speed and why? Explain in a sentence or two.

A 2-kg block is pushed against a spring with spring-constant k 512 N/m, compressing it 0.25 m
A 2-kg block is pushed against a spring with spring-constant k 512 N/m, compressing it 0.25 m. When the block is released, it moves along a frictionless, horizontal surface and then up a frictionless incline with slope 53.1° (a) What is the speed of the block as it slides along the horizontal surface after having left the spring? (b) How far does the block travel up the incline before starting to slide back down?
A 2.00 kg block is pushed against a spring with negligible mass and force constant k = 400 N/m compressing it 0.220 m.
A 2.00 kg block is pushed against a spring with negligible mass and force constant k = 400 N/m compressing it 0.220 m.

A block of mass m is pushed against a spring of spring constant k. The spring is compressed by a distance d, the block is then released. It is launched by the spring along a horizontal frictionless surface with a final speed v. A second block, this one having mass 9m is pushed against the same spring and released, gaining a final speed 3v. By what distance was the spring compressed in the second case?

A 2.00 kg block is pushed against a spring with negligible mass and force constant k= 310 N/m, compressing it 0.220 m. When the block is released, it moves along a horizontal rough surface (with a coefficient of kinetic, μk= 0.125 ) for the distance of d= 2.00 m and then up a frictionless incline. a) What is the speed of the block at the end of the horizontal surface? (I got 1.61) b) How far does the block travel up...

A 1.50-kg block is pushed against a vertical wall by means of a spring (k = 710 N/m). The coefficient of static friction between the block and the wall is 0.46. What is the minimum compression in the spring to prevent the block from slipping down?
A block of mass 3 kg is pushed against a spring of spring constant 3000 N/m....
A block of mass 3 kg is pushed against a spring of spring constant 3000 N/m. Initially, the spring is compressed by a distance of 0.220 m, when the block is released from rest and travels along a horizontal frictionless surface before encountering a frictionless ramp, inclined at an angle of 37° above the horizontal. How far along the ramp does the block travel before momentarily coming to rest?
