A block of mass m = 2.6 kg is dropped (starting from rest) from a height h = 0.76 meters above the top of an ideal spring with a spring constant of k = 254 newtons per meter. The spring is originally at its equilibrium length (and the mass of the spring is negligible). The block falls on the top of the spring and compresses it a distance d from its equilibrium length before the spring sends it flying back up into the air. Ignore friction and other non-conservative forces, and let g = 9.81 meters per second squared. What is the maximum compression d of the spring (in units of meters)? This one, too.

Starting from rest, a small block of mass m = 0.25 kg slides down an incline from a height h = 1.2 m. As it slides down, the block experiences a force of kinetic friction of constant magnitude fk = 2.1 N only over a distance L = 0.2 m, as shown in the figure. The incline is frictionless everywhere else. After reaching the bottom of the incline, the block strikes a larger block of mass M = 1.8 kg that is attached to a spring of spring constant k = 6.5 N/m. The large block was originally at rest. The blocks stick together upon impact and travel together on the frictionless horizontal surface. Assume that both blocks are subject to the regular force of gravity (g = 9.80665 m/s2). (a) Determine the speed of the small block right before it collides with the larger block. Answer: m/s (b) Determine the speed of the combination of the two blocks immediately after the collision. Answer: m/s (c) Determine the compression of the spring when the combination of the two blocks comes to rest. Answer: m

A block of mass m = 0.1 kg falls down a ramp of height h = 0.5 m and angle θ = 30 degrees. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is given by μ, which will vary throughout this problem. At the end of the ramp, the block slides along a frictionless horizontal surface until it makes contact with, and compresses, a mass-less spring with spring constant k = 1.0 N/m. Assume g = 9.81 m/s2. Determine the following:Assume the ramp is frictionless (i. e., μ = 0). What is the maximum distance that the spring will compress? What coefficient of kinetic friction, μ, will cause the spring to compress by exactly half the distance that it did when the ramp was frictionless? Using the value of the coefficient of friction found in part 2, when the spring pushes the block back towards the ramp, what is the maximum height that the block reaches?
