A 2.00 kg block sliding on a horizontal surface makes contact with a spring, compressing
the spring (the other end of the spring is attached to a rigid wall). At the instant of
contact, the block has a speed of 12.0 m/s. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction
between the block and the surface are 0.55 and 0.35, respectively. The spring constant of
the spring is 100.0 N/m.
a) Determine the maximum compression of the spring
b) Determine the final resting place of the block with respect to the original point
of contact

A 2.5-kg block is sliding along a rough horizontal surface and collides with a horizontal spring whose spring constant is 320 N/m. Unstretched, the spring is 20.0 cm long. The block causes the spring to compress to a length of 12.5 cm as the block temporarily comes to rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is 0.25. a) How much work is done by the spring as it brings the block to rest? b)...

A 3.0-kg block sliding on a frictionless horizontal surface is accelerated by a compressed spring. If the 200 N/m spring is initially compressed 10 cm, determine (a) the potential energy stored in the spring. As the block leaves the spring, find (b) the kinetic energy of the block, and (c) the velocity of the block.

A 28 kg block on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 4.8 kN/m. The block is pulled to the right so that the spring is stretched 7.2 cm beyond its relaxed length, and the block is then released from rest. The frictional force between the sliding block and the surface has a magnitude of 37 N. (a) What is the kinetic energy of the block when it has moved 1.6 cm from...

Another block, another spring. This time around, the block (m = 1.18 kg) is compressing a spring with spring constant k = 273 N/m by 36.3 cm. It is released from rest so it then slides along the horizontal surface shown. This time, there is friction on the horizontal surface, with a coefficient of friction between the block and surface of μk = 0.11. In addition, there is a steady wind blowing to the right, exerting a constant 6.7 N...
