    A 12 kg block is pressed against a spring with spring constant k = 1424 N/m. The spring is normally 65 cm long but the block is pressed against it to compress the spring until it is only 27 cm long. The block is then released and the spring pushes it forward onto a frictionless surface. a)How fast is the block moving immediately after it leaves the spring? b) The mass then slides across a 2.5 m wide surface with...

    Jack and Jill are in a boat 4 m long. The boat has mass 48 kg and its weight is uniformly distributed along its length. Jill (mass 30 kg) sits at one end and Jack (mass 45 kg) sits at the other end. The boat is in still water, not moving as children stay still. If Jack and Jill exchange their positions, by how much does the boat move? Ignore any resistance of the lake's water.
