A small block with mass 1.50 kgkg is placed against a light spring that is compressed 0.250 mm. The spring has force constant 50.0 N/mN/m . The block and spring are released from rest, and the block travels along a horizontal surface for which the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and surface is μkμk = 0.500. When the block has moved 0.250 mm and the spring has reached its equilibrium length, the block loses contact with the spring.

Find the speed of the block at the instant when it leaves the spring?

Calculate the maximum speed of the block during its motion?

A block of mass m is pressed against a light spring by a distance d and is kept at rest (Fig. 1). The spring, of elastic constant k, is released and the block is thrown on a horizontal surface without friction. The smooth surface curves upward and the block rises. Calculate your speed when you have climbed a height h. (Express v as a function of k, m, d, h and g).

Problem 2 A block of mass 1 kg is sitting on top of a compressed spring of spring constant k = 300 N/m and equilibrium length 20 cm. Initially the spring is compressed 10 cm, and the block is held in place by someone pushing down on it with his hand. At t = 0, the hand is removed (this involves no work), the spring expands and the block flies upwards. (a)Draw a free-body diagram for the block while the...

A block of mass 0.5 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of Δx as shown in Figure 5. The spring constant is 450 N/m. When released the block travels along a frictionless horizontal surface to point B, the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1 m and continues to move up the track. The circular track is not smooth. The speed of the block at the bottom...

A wooden block of mass 20.0 g is placed on a table, and pressed against a spring. The spring, of spring constant 25.0 N/m, is compressed 10.0 cm. Once released, the block slides (with friction) across the tabletop and eventually lands 1.59 m from the edge of the table on the floor, as shown in the figure. The tabletop is 1.00 m above the floor level. What is the speed of the block at the moment it leaves the tabletop?...

A mass of 2.33 kilograms is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface against an uncompressed spring with spring constant 1,022.7 N/m. The mass is pushed against the spring until the spring is compressed a distance 0.35 m and then released. How high (vertically) in m does the mass rise from the original height before it stops (momentarily).
