Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 50 cm and holds it in position with a force of 150 N. If the mass of the arrow is 50 g and the “spring” is massless, what is the speed of the arrow immediately after it leaves the bow?
Two blocks of masses m and 3m are placed on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A light spring is attached to the more massive block, and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them (Fig. P8.7). A cord initially holding the blocks together is burned; after that happens, the block of mass 3m moves to the right with a speed of 2.00 m/s. (a) What is the velocity of the block of mass m? (b) Find the systems original elastic potential energy, taking m = 0.350 kg. (c) Is the original energy in the spring or in the cord? (d) Explain your answer to part (c). (e) Is the momentum of the system conserved in the bursting-apart process?

An inclined plane of angle = 20.0 has a spring of force constant k = 500 N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface as shown in Figure P6.61. A block of mass m = 2.50 kg is placed on the plane at a distance d = 0.300 m from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed v = 0.750 m/s. By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest?
Hoping for complete solutions since I’m having a hard time with this. Pls skip if unsure or not willing to answer the subitems (these are all connected for one item). Thanks in advanced! A block with mass m = 3. 00 [kg] slides head-on to a spring with spring constant k = 420. [N/m]. When the block stops, the spring has been compressed by 5.00 [dm]. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and floor is 0.300. While the block is in contact with the spring and being brought to rest, what is the work done on the block by: A. the spring force and B. friction? C. What is the block’s speed just as it reaches the spring?
You have been asked to design a "ballistic spring system" to measure the speed of bullets. A bullet of mass m is fired into a block of mass M. The block, with the embedded bullet, then slides across a frictionless table and collides with a horizontal spring whose spring constant is k. The opposite end of the spring is anchored to a wall. The spring's maximum compression d is measured. What percentage of the bullet's energy is "lost"?
It will launch a 25 g projectile to a range of 2.15 m when it is launched at an angle of 45 degrees. You can use this information to find the initial velocity of the ball, of course, (and you should). Therefore, you should be able to calculate how much energy the spring in the projectile launcher must impart to the ball as it is being launched. The ball is pushed back 7.5 cm in the projectile launcher in order to getit ready to fire. What is the spring constant of the projectile launcher?

The system is help at rest and then released. (a) How much energy is initially stored in the spring? (b) After being released from rest, what is the velocity of each of the lab carts?

A 400 kg trailer with a spring attached to it is travelling at a speed of 20 m/s. The trailer collides with a 200 kg cart going 40 m/s in a head-on collision. If the spring constant is 850 N/m, calculate the maximum compression of the spring.
In this question you will use an energy approach to determine how the mass of a spring affects its motion. Normally we assume the spring has zero mass. But if we realize real springs have mass we can find the contribution to the kinetic energy of the system due to the motion of the spring. What makes this hard is that different parts of the spring move at different velocities. So, we must use a little calculus to find the result.Consider a vertical spring of mass m that has a mass M attached at its end. Let the position of the mass at the end of the spring relative to the point of attachment be given by Y and its velocity be given by V. a) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring at the point of attachment? b) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring right next to the moving mass? c) What is the velocity of a small segment of the spring that is exactly halfway between the top and the bottom? d) Now let the mass of the spring be m and…
