A spring with a spring constant of 718 N/m lies on a horizontal surface and that surface is y = 0 m to calculate the gravitational potential energy. A mass of 3 kg is compressed 0.45 meters into the spring and held still. After the mass is released it slides over a horizontal surface in which a 3.4 meter portion of the surface has friction with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.30. After the horizontal surface, it travels up a frictionless quarter-circular ramp and stops at the top of the ramp. What is the radius of the quarter-circular ramp in meters?

    A mass of 9 kg is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and attached to a spring. The mass is compressed 0.69 meters on the spring from equilibrium and held still. It is then released and it travels across the horizontal surface, around a frictionless quarter circular ramp, and it is launched into the air vertically and reaches a maximum height of 6 meters above the ground. The same mass is then attached to the same spring and hung vertically...

    A mass of 2 kilograms is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface against an uncompressed spring with spring constant 943.4 N/m. The inclined portion of the surface makes at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.16 with the mass. The mass is pushed against the spring until it is compressed a distance 0.12 and then released. How high (vertically), in meters, does the mass rise from the original height before...

    A horizontal spring with spring constant 130 N/m is compressed 19 cm and used to launch a 2.8 kg box across a frictionless, horizontal surface. After the box travels some distance, the surface becomes rough. The coefficient of kinetic friction of the box on the surface is 0.15. Use work and energy to find how far the box slides across the rough surface before stopping. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

    A mass of 5 kg is compressed 3.9 meters into one spring, held still, and released from rest. It travels over a horizontal surface, up an incline which has a height (not length) of 5 meters, and then travels over another horizontal surface. At the end of that surface is another spring with the same spring constant. The mass hits the second spring and eventually stops after compressing it 2.3 meters. What is the elastic potential energy of the second...

    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?

    2. Mass mi -10.0 kg is initially held against the spring of spring constant k-100 N/m. The spring is compressed a distance x 0.45 m. When released, m is fired towards a block of mass m2-4.4 kg initially at rest at the edge of a horizontal, frictionless table of height h-0.75 m. A ramp is placed at the end of the table. The ramp has a coefficient of kinetic friction μ.-0.25 and is a distance d-1.06 m long. The blocks...
