A box of mass m1 = 2.0 kg starts from rest and slides down the frictionless incline. At point A, the box encounters a (massless) spring of spring constant k. It compresses the spring a distance x = 0.25 m to point B where the speed of the box is 4.4 m/s. The first box is then removed and a second box of mass m2 = 3.0 kg is placed on the same incline at the same initial point and let go from rest. At the same point B, the velocity of the second box is found to be 5.6 m/s. Find

(a) the vertical height h that both boxes slid through before reaching point B,

(b) the spring constant, k.

[PLEASE NOTE-Here the value of gravitational accleration is taken   & the solution of the part (a) is done by considering only the second box of mass ]

Hope this will help you.

Thank You.

A 4.5 kg box slides down a 4.2-m -high frictionless hill, starting from rest, across a 2.3-m -wide horizontal surface, then hits a horizontal spring with spring constant 480 N/m . The other end of the spring is anchored against a wall. The ground under the spring is frictionless, but the 2.3-m-long horizontal surface is rough. The coefficient of kinetic friction of the box on this surface is 0.26. What is the speed of the box just before hitting the...

A box (with a penguin inside) with mass, M, slides down a frictionless ramp, starting a height H above ground level. At the lowest point of the ramp (height = -0.1H) it slides through a curved section of track with radius, R= 0.25H. The box (w/ penguin) then rises to ground level (height = 0) and at that point, leaves a jump at an angle θ. At the highest point of its trajectory, h2, it strikes a blob of glue...
