A non-linear spring is attached to a 2-kg mass sitting on a smooth surface as shown. The force exerted by the spring is given by the equation below, where x is in meters, and F is in Newtons. The mass initially compresses the spring 0.1 m and is released from rest. Find the maximum velocity of the mass.

A block of mass 500 g is attached to a spring of spring constant 80 N/m as shown below. The other end of the spring is attached to a support while the mass rests on a rough surface with a coefficient of friction of 0.20 that is inclined at angle of 30∘. The block is pushed along the surface till the spring compresses by 10 cm and is then released from rest. (a) How much potential energy was stored in the block-spring-support system when the block was just released? (b) Determine the speed of the block when it crosses the point when the spring is neither compressed nor stretched. (c) Determine the position of the block where it just comes to rest on its way up the incline. (15 points)

A block of mass m rests on a rough horizontal surface and is attached to a spring of stiffness k. The coefficients of both static and kinetic friction are μ. The block is displaced a distance x0 to the right of the unstretched position for the spring and released from rest. If the value for x0 is large enough, the spring force will overcome the maximum available static friction force and the block will slide toward the unstretched position of the spring with an acceleration a = μg − k/mx, where x represents the amount of stretch (or compression) in the spring at any given location in the motion. Use the values m = 10 kg, k = 115 N/m, μ = 0.44, and x0 = 530 mm and determine the final spring stretch (or compression) xf when the block comes to a complete stop. The distance xf will be positive if to the right (spring stretched) and negative if to the left (spring compressed). Answer: xf = mm
