    A toy gun uses a spring with a force constant of 290 N/m to propel a 8.5-g steel ball. Assuming the spring is compressed 6.8 cm and friction is negligible, answer the following questions: What is the gun’s maximum range, in meters, on level ground? Why does the gun's maximum gun range = (v)^2/g?

    A toy dart gun contains a spring with a spring constant of 250 N/m. A 0.059 kg dart is pressed 0.05 m into the gun. a) If the gun is aimed directly upward, how high into the air will the dart travel when shot (measured from the compressed position in the gun)? b) What is the maximum velocity of the dart? c) If the dart got stuck to the spring: i) with what angular frequency will the dart oscillate (neglect...

    A massless spring of a spring gun has a force constant k=800 N/m. A ball of mass 0.5 kg is resting on top of the spring. The ball compresses the spring by d as shown in the right figure. When the gun is fired vertically, the ball reached a maximum height of 5 m from the top of the spring as it returns to its natural length. Calculate how much the spring was initially compressed (d). (a) 12 cm; (b)...

    The spring of a spring gun has force constant k = 450 N/m and negligible mass. The spring is compressed 6.40 cm and a ball with mass 0.0270 kg is placed in the horizontal barrel against the compressed spring. The spring is then released, and the ball is propelled out the barrel of the gun. The barrel is 6.40 cm long, so the ball leaves the barrel at the same point that it loses contact with the spring. The gun...

    A toy gun uses a spring to project a 5.5-g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 8.0 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 14 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.033 N exists between barrel and projectile. With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel if the spring was compressed 6.0 cm for this launch? (Assume the projectile is in contact with the barrel for the full 14 cm.) _____m/s
