A 1.55-kg block is launched by a spring and slides along a ramp as shown. The spring has a spring constant of 1180 N/m and is compressed a distance, x, before being released. The block slides up a frictionless ramp of height, H=0.550 m, above where the block leaves the spring. At the top of the ramp it flies horizontally off the ramp. Just before leaving the ramp, the kinetic energy of the block is 8.54 J. After leaving the...
