A block of mass m sits at rest against a spring, which has spring constant k and is compressed an amount of deltax from its equilibrium length. The spring is released, and the block slides along the smooth ground before reaching a ramp that makes an angle theta with respect to the ground.
a) What is the maximum distance along the length of the ramp that the block will slide? GIve your answer in terms of the variables given.
b) Find an expression for the power that the force of gravity extracts from the block as it slides up the ramp. You may only use the given variables, as well as a variable representing the displacement along the ramp.
c) Using the expression you found in part (b), write an integral equation that will yield the change in gravitational potential energy of the block at some arbitrary time after it starts up the ramp. You do not need to solve the integral, but it must only include the given variables (not including the variable representing the distance up the ramp) and common physical constants.

An m = 2.0kg block sits next to a compressed spring with spring constant k = 4.5N/m. The spring is compressed by x = 3.0m. The spring is released and pushes the box along a surface with no friction. Once freely sliding the block transitions to a ramp with an angle 35 above the horizontal. On the ramp the block experiences a constant force of friction with a coefficient of kinetic friction of μ = 0.15. How far along the ramp’s surface does the block...
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 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?
A block of mass m is pushed against an ideal spring of constant of k, compressing it over a distance x with respect to its natural length. When the block is released, it moves up a rough ramp of inclination θ and coefficient of friction μk.What is the maximum distance (d) that the block travels up the incline? You MUST use conservation of energy to solve this problem. Epress your answers in term of m, g, k, μk and θ.
6. Consider a horizontal spring with spring constant k. A block with mass m is pushed far to the left against the spring until the spring is compressed a distance r relative to its relaxed length. A second block, which is stationary and also has a mass m, is located to the right of the spring im rrm a) We release the first block from rest. Due to the force from the spring, it slides to the right and eventually...
Problem 8.21 Part A When a mass m sits at rest on a spring, the spring is compressed by a distance d from its undeformed length. Suppose instead that the mass is released from rest when it barely touches the undeformed spring. (Figure 1) Find the distance D that the spring is compressed before it is able to stop the mass. Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables m and d. Submit My Answers Give...

A spring-block system sits on a horizontal, frictionless surface. The spring has a spring constant k =2000N/m. The blocks mass is 10.0kg. The mass of the spring is negligible. The spring is stretched out a distance of 20.0 cm and released. The block undergoes simple harmonic motion with a phase constantf= 1.35 rad. a) determine the timeit takes for the spring to be compressed 6.50cm after it was released b) determine the acceleration of the black at t = 1.50 s.
4. (15 pts) A small block with a mass 'm', is released from rest at an initial height 'h'. the mass slides down a ramp and then through a 'dip' with a given radius of curvature '. at the lowest point of the curve, the mass as a velocity of vc (velocity at curve). The mass continues back up and eventually slides over a friction patch of length 'd' when it eventually reaches an uncompressed spring. The mass compresses the...
A perfect massless spring with spring constant k= 30000 N/m is affixed to a wall at the base of a ramp. A block (mass= 3 kg) is touching the end of the spring that is away from the wall. The block begins at rest, and the spring begins at equilibrium. A stranger comes along and presses the block towards the wall, compressing the spring a distance of 9 cm. The pen she releases it. A. Calculate the work done by...
