A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.38-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 4.98 cm and has a force constant of 7.94 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.6 cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and the barrel exerts a constant friction force of 0.031 7 N on the ball.

(a) With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of the cannon? (m/s)

(b) At what point does the ball have maximum speed? cm (from its original position)

(c) What is this maximum speed?

A toy gun shoots spherical plastic projectiles by means of a spring. A typical projectile has a mass of m = 25 g. The spring used has a spring constant of k = 18.6 N/m, and when put under load, it is displaced 10 cm, as shown in Figure P6.92. The barrel of the gun exerts a slight frictional force, Ffriction= -0.1512 N, on the pellet as it moves down the barrel from its starting point over a total length...

The launching mechanism of a toy gun consists of a spring of unknown spring constant, as shown in the figure below. If the spring is compressed a distance of 0.200 m and the gun fired vertically as shown, the gun can launch a 16.0-g projectile from rest to a maximum height of 26.0 m above the starting point of the projectile. Figures a and b show a ball in a toy spring gun, oriented with its barrel vertical and opening...

The toy gun in the figure below consists of a spring with spring constant k. It is loaded with a projectile of mass m and the spring is compressed of a distance d. The toy gun is fired horizontally and the bullet travels a total distance of L within the toy gun before it is released. A) Neglecting all resistive forces, determine the speed of the projectile v0 once it exits the toy gun (i.e, express v0 in terms of...

A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage, which can move along horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially unstretched and with force constant k = 2.05 ✕ 104 N/m, as shown in the figure below. The cannon fires a 200 kg projectile at a velocity of 125 m/s directed 45.0° above the horizontal. An illustration shows a carriage whose wheels are moving along horizontal rails. The carriage is horizontal to the rail. A...

A ball with mass m = 50.0 g, is sitting on a vertical spring whose force constant is 120.0 N/m. The initial position of the spring is at y = 0.00 m. The spring is compressed downward a distance x = 0.200 m. From the compressed position, how high will the ball bearing rise? How high is does the ball bearing rise above the position at y = 0.00 m? What is the kinetic energy of the ball at the...
