The launching mechanism of a popgun consists of a
trigger-released
spring. The spring is compressed to a position yA=-0.12m, and the
trigger is fired.
The projectile of mass m=35g rises to a position yC=20m above the
position yB=0m
at which it leaves the spring.
1-Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the spring
constant.
2-Find the speed of the ball at height yB

A spring was compressed by varying load from 100N to 350N. If
the spring material is music wire, design the spring specifications
and indicate its factor of safety against fluctuating
stresses.Assume and state relevant parameters.

The figure shows an 8.5 kg stone at rest on a spring. The spring
is compressed 11 cm by the stone. (a) What is the spring constant?
(b) The stone is pushed down an additional 32 cm and released.What
is the elastic potential energy of the compressed spring just
before that release? (c) What is the change in the gravitational
potential energy of the stone–Earth system when the stone moves
from the release point to its maximum height? (d) What...

a 100 kg student is compressed 50 cm on a spring with a spring
constant of k = 80,000 N/m. He is on top of a 10 m frictionless
hill. He then is released from rest. He goes down to the bottom of
the hill before sliding up a 30° frictionless hill. a. (8 pts) Find
the speed of the student when he reaches the bottom of the hill. b.

The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart
gun, with a spring constant of 36.00 N/m, is 1.440 J. Find by how
much is the spring is compressed. A 0.070 kg dart is fired straight
up. Find the vertical distance the dart travels from its position
when the spring is compressed to its highest position. The same
dart is now fired horizontally from a height of 4.30 m. The dart
remains in contact until the spring reaches...

In a spring gun system, a spring with a spring force constant
420 N/mN/m , is compressed 0.13 mm . When fired, 80.9 %%
of the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is eventually
converted into kinetic energy of a 6.10×10−2 kgkg
uniform ball that is rolling without slipping at the base of a
ramp. The ball continues to roll without slipping up the ramp with
89.6 %% of the kinetic energy at the bottom converted into an
increase in...

A spring (70 N/m ) has an equilibrium length of 1.00 m. The
spring is compressed to a length of 0.50 m and a mass of 2.2 kg is
placed at its free end on a frictionless slope which makes an angle
of 41 ? with respect to the horizontal. The spring is then
released. (Figure 1)
Part A
If the mass is not attached to the spring, how far up the slope
from the compressed point will the mass move...

A horizontal spring with a spring constant of 190 N/cm is
compressed 6.3 cm. A wooden block with a mass of 1.5 kg is placed
in front of and in contact with the spring. When the spring is
released it pushes the block, which slides on a frictionless
horizontal surface for some distance. The block then slides up a
frictionless incline of 27 above the horizontal and comes to a
momentary stop before sliding back down. The system is the...

A mass-spring oscillator consists of a 3.40-kg block attached to
a spring of spring constant 103 N/m. At time t = 1.40 s, the
position and the velocity of the block are x = 0.150 m and v = 3.18
m/s respectively. What is the amplitude of oscillation? What was
the position of the block at t = 0? What was the speed of the block
at t = 0?
