A block of mass M is hanging from a rope of length L. You throw a ball of clay of mass m towards the block. The clay hits the block along the horizontal axis with a speed v, and proceeds to stick to the block. The block and clay swing up to a maximum height h. Find h.

Consider a simple plane pendulum of mass m and length l (the mass swings in a vertical plane). After the pendulum is set into motion, the length of the string is decreased at a constant rate, ??/?? = −? = ?????. The suspension point remains fixed.

A ball of mass m is attached to a string of length L. It is swung in a vertical circle with enough speed to keep the string taut throughout the motion. Assume the ball travels freely in the circle with negligible loss of mechanical energy. Determine if the following six statements are true or false; e.g., enter TTFFFF. The tension in the string is less at the top of the circle than at the bottom of the circle. The acceleration...

A spring has an unstretched length of 0.31 m. A block with mass 0.23 kg is hung at rest from the spring, and the spring becomes 0.37 m long. Next the spring is stretched to a length of 0.43 m and the block is released from rest. Air resistance is negligible. How long does it take for the block to return to where it was released? Next the block is again positioned at rest, hanging from the spring (0.37 m...
