A spring with relaxed length 0.30 m and spring constant 1.8 N/m rests horizontally on a frictionless table and is anchored frmly to a wall on one side. You press a 400 g block into the other side until the spring length is 0.16 m and then let go.
a.) What will the momentum of the block be when it departs from the spring? (Assume contact ceases when the spring is relaxed.)
b.) If the table were no longer frictionless and the block-table interface had a kinetic coeffcient of friction of 0.1 what then would the momentum of the block be when it departs from the spring?

The angle between the ball's initial velocity vector and the wall is 6 as shown on the diagram, which depicts the situation as seen from above. The duration of the collision between the ball and the wall is At, and this collision is completely elastic. Friction is negligible, so the ball does not start spinning. In this idealized collision, the force exerted on the ball by the wall is parallel to the x axis. What is the final angle Or that the ball's velocity vector makes with the negative y axis?

- Problem A new type of force was discovered by physicists with the following expression: a Fnew + Be* + 3x4 %3D where alpha & beta are constants, and x is the position. The expression above was obtained from the interaction of a massless Higgs Boson (a type of particle) and a black hole. Quantum physicists then decides to design and build a machine that is able to move the Higgs Boson from x2 to x1. How much work should the machine do to achieve this feat? (For simplicity, consider that no energy is lost in the process) Solution To determine the work done we apply the following W = dx Evaluating the above, we get W = | + e + for the limits from x¡ to xf substituting x1 and x2 as the limits, the work done is expressed as W = | + B X1 ( x15 - x25 )arrow_forwardHi, please show full solutions and also explain how you get the answers in physics terms so it's understandable.
