In the figure below, a horizontal spring is used to launch an object towards an incline. Assume that there is no friction. The spring constant is 40.0 N/m. The object has mass 0.50 kg. The incline is 30.0∘ to the horizontal. The spring is compressed 0.20 m, then the block is released. After leaving the spring, the object travels horizontally a short distance before reaching the incline. (a) Determine the initial speed of the block just before reaching the incline. (b) After travelling 0.10 metres along (parallel to) the incline, what is the speed of the object? (c) Determine the maximum distance along the incline the block travels before it stops and reverses direction.

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

In a pinball machine, a ball of mass 120 gram is placed in front of a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 90 N/m. The spring is pulled so that it squeezes by x = 5 cm, and then let go. The ball then rises up a ramp. Assume no rotation of the ball, what will be the speed of the ball when it has travelled L = 63 cm along the incline. The ramp is at an angle of θ = 8 degrees. Ignore friction.
