Answers + steps

1. A 2.0 kg block sliding on a frictionless horizontal surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k = 600 N/m) which has its other end fixed. The speed of the block when the spring is extended is 0.20 m is equal to 3.0 m/s. What is the maximum speed of this block as it oscillates? (Or speed when the spring is fully relaxed?)

2. A 10 kg object is dropped from rest. After falling a distance of 50 m, it has a speed of 26 m/s. What is the change in total mechanical energy caused by the dissipative air resistive force on the object during this descent?

A block is initially sliding to the right across a frictionless surface toward a spring. The block has a mass of 6.00 kg and an initial speed of 4.00 m/s. The spring is attached to a wall at at its right end. At equilibrium, the spring is 2.00 m long. It has a spring constant of 1500 N/m. 1.  When the block collides with the spring, the length of the spring becomes shorter. What is the shortest length the spring has...

A block rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to a spring. When set into simple harmonic motion, the block oscillates back and forth with an angular frequency of 8.9 rad/s. The drawing shows the position of the block when the spring is unstrained. This position is labeled ''x = 0 m.'' The drawing also shows a small bottle located 0.080 m to the right of this position. The block is pulled to the right, stretching the spring...

A 0.55 kg block rests on a frictionless horizontal countertop, where it is attached to a massless spring whose k-value equals 23.0 N/m. Let x be the displacement, where x = 0 is the equilibrium position and x > 0 when the spring is stretched. The block is pushed, and the spring compressed, until xi = −4.00 cm. It then is released from rest and undergoes simple harmonic motion. (a) What is the block's maximum speed (in m/s) after it...
