90. The spring of a spring gun has a constant of 500N/m. It is compressed a distance x = 0.05m and a ball of mass 0.10kg is placed in the barrel against the compressed spring.


Compute the maximum speed with which the ball leaves the gun when released.( consider Conservation of Energy)

2. A nerf gun is loaded with a spring. The spring has a spring constant of 400 N/m and the “ammunition” is a foam dart with a mass of 0.2kg. When loaded, the spring is compressed 0.05m. (Ignore any air resistance.) a) How much elastic potential energy does the foam dart have when the spring is compressed and the nerf gun is fully loaded? b) How much kinetic energy does the foam dart have when the spring is compressed and...

A vertical elastic spring with a spring constant of 619 N/m is compressed 25 cm. A ball of mass 320 grams is placed at rest on top of the compressed spring. Take that the height of the ball at this position is zero. The spring is then released so the ball is shot straight up. a)Find the total initial energy of the system consisting of the ball and the spring. b)Find the total potential (i.e before the ball is shot)...

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...

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...

A spring with a spring constant of 302 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.078 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.038 kg is then held against the compressed spring and released from rest while upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. Assuming that the spring then pushes the mass across the surface, with speed does the mass leave the spring? Assume proper SI Units.

A spring gun (k = 750 N/m) is loaded with a 55.3 g ball and compressed 12.0 cm. The gun is then fired horizontally off a 8.0 m high platform. (a) How fast will the ball be moving just as it leaves the spring gun (before it begins to fall)? (b) Determine the speed of the ball as it hits the ground. (Assume the ball is 8.0 m above the ground when it is fired.)
