After gluing two 0.70-kg blocks together, you determine that you can pull the blocks apart with a force of 25 N . You attach the top block to a vertical spring for which the spring constant is 500 N/m .
What is the maximum possible amplitude of oscillation for which the glue can keep the blocks together?
Suppose the blocks are exactly at the bottom of an oscillation,
just between moving down and back up.
The weight force on one of the 0.7kg blocks is 6.86 N. If the
upward acceleration on the same block
= 25 - 6.86 = 18.14 N, the total force will be 25 N.
So a = 18.14/0.7 = 25.91 m/s² = ω²A where A is the amplitude.
ω = √k/m) = √(500/1.4) => ω = 18.8982
25.91 = 18.8982^2*A
A = 0.072548 m
A = 7.255 cm

Two blocks, A and B, are initially held together by a string as
shown in the figure; the mass of block A is of 2 kg and the mass of
block B is 4 kg. The massless spring in-between the two blocks has
a spring constant of k = 655 N/m and is initially compressed by 45
cm. The two blocks are initially moving together with a speed of 1
m/s. When the string is cut (i.e., when the blocks...
A small block of mass 4.2 kg sits on top of a block of mass 19.8 kg. The lower block is attached to a spring with spring constant 248 N/m and can slide on a horizontal frictionless surface. The coefficient of friction between the blocks is 0.4. What is the maximum possible amplitude of simple harmonic motion, xm, of the spring-blocks system if no slippage is to occur between the blocks?
A 2.00-kg block lies at rest on a frictionless table. A spring, with a spring constant of 100 N/m, is attached to the wall and to the block. A second block of 0.50 kg is placed on top of the first one. The 2.00-kg block is gently pulled to a position x = + A and released from rest. There is a coefficient of friction of 0.45 between the two blocks. (a) Assuming that the top block does not slide,...

A block with mass M = 6.0 kg rests on a frictionless table and is attached by a horizontal spring (k = 130 N/m) to a all. A second block, of mass m = 1.25 kg, rests on top of M. The coefficient of static friction between the two blocks is 0.30. What is the maximum possible amplitude of oscillation such that m will not slip off M?
Consider the system of two blocks and a spring. The horizontal surface is frictionless, but there is static friction between the two blocks. The spring has force constant k = 150 N/m. The masses of the two blocks are m = 0.500 kg and M = 6.00 kg. You set the blocks into motion by releasing block M with the spring stretched a distance d from equilibrium. You start with small values of d, and then repeat with successively larger...
Two blocks with masses 0.453 kg (A) and 0.703 kg (B) sit on a frictionless surface. Between them is a spring with spring constant 28.1 N/m, which is not attached to either block The two blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring by 0.303 meter, after which the system is released from rest. What is the final speed of the block A?
Two blocks of masses 20 kg and 8.0 kg are connected together by a light string and rest on a frictionless, level surface. Attached to the 8.0-kg mass is a second light string, which a person uses to pull both blocks horizontally.

PUSHING BLOCKS You exert a 238 N push the leftmost of two identical blocks of mass 209 g connected by a spring of stiffness 554 kg/s2. After pushing the block a distance 15 cm, you release it; by this time the rightmost block has moved a distance 5 cm. (a) What is the energy in the oscillations between the blocks?

EC1. A block of mass m-4.0 kg is put on top of a block of mass ms = 5.0 kg. To cause the top block to slip on the bottom one while the bottom one is held fixed, a horizontal force of at least 12 N must be applied to the top block. The assembly of blocks is now placed on a horizontal, frictionless table. a. What is the maximum possible acceleration of the 2 blocks together? (5) F word...
