Two masses are pressed against opposite ends of a spring, with one mass at either end of the spring. The spring is has a spring constant of 181 N/m and the two 0.200 kg masses are identical to each other. Pressing the masses against the ends of the spring compresses the spring 21.5 cm from its normal length. If both masses rest on a frictionless, horizontal table, find the speed of each mass in SI units when it has moved free of the spring on the table.

The 100 N box in the figure slides on the surface with a kinetic friction coefficient of μk = 0.3. The velocity of the box when it is 0.6 m away from the plate is v = 4.5 m / s. Since the box hits the 50 N plate and its movement is prevented by the uncompressed spring with k = 6500 N / m, determine the maximum compression given to the spring. Take the collision coefficient between box and plate e = 0.8. (g = 9,81 m / s2)

A toy rocket launcher contains a spring with a spring constant of 35 N/m. a). How far must the spring be compressed to store 1.5 J of energy. b) Assuming the foam rocket has a mass of 0.005 kg and the spring transfers all of its energy into the rocket, determine the launch speed of the rocket (Round answer to nearest tenth). c) Assume that the rocket is at an angle of 75 degrees, SKETCH the trajectory of the rocket and neglecting wind resistance d) Determine the height of the rocket and e) How far horizontally does the rocket travel?
A cart of mass 4 kg is on frictionless surface and compressed against an ideal spring with spring constant 192 N/m for a distance of 1.04 m. After it is released, it hits a second cart of mass 8 kg and bounces back while the second car continues traveling onto a ramp where it reaches a height of h₂ = 0.67 m. Find the velocity of the second cart in m/s immediately AFTER being hit by the first cart. Use g = 9.8 m/s² and retain your answer to two decimal places. ✓ k m1 m2 Дийм m1 m2 Loo 1 h₂
Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes them apart and they then fly off in opposite directions, free of the spring. The mass of A is 3.00 times the mass of B, and the energy stored in the spring was 85.0 J. Assume that the spring has negligible mass and that all its stored energy is transferred to the particles. Once that transfer is complete, what are the kinetic energies of (a) particle A and (b) particle B?
