A spring with a relaxed length of 25 cm and a stiffness of 11 N/m stands vertically on a table. A block of mass 73 g is attached to the top of the spring. You pull the block upward, stretching the spring until its length is now 31.3 cm, hold the block at rest for a moment, and then release it. Using a time step of 0.1 s, predict the position and momentum of the block at a time 0.2 s after you release the block. (Assume the + y direction is upward. Express your answers in vector form.)

Your answer is partially correct. Use the approximation that ✓ Pflm for each time step. avg A block is attached to the top of a spring that stands vertically on a table. The spring stiffness is 50 N/m, its relaxed length is 30 cm, and the mass of the block is 230 g. The block is oscillating up and down as the spring stretches and compresses. At a particular time you observe that the velocity of the block is m/s and the position of the block is m relative to an origin at the base of the spring. Using a time step of 0.1 s, determine the position of the block 0.2 s later. 7 = 0 eTextbook and Media = 0.0916 0 > m
An ideal spring hangs vertically. When a 453 g object is hung from the bottom end, and lowered gently, the spring stretches 5.58 cm. How much would be the spring have stretched, in cm, if the mass of the object had been 560 g instead? x'=?
The mass hangs at the end of a spring which has 300 N/m spring constant. The 4 kg mass is displaced at 12 cm and released. What is the acceleration at x = +10 cm and its maximum acceleration?
A child’s toy consists of plastic attached to a spring. The spring is compressed against the floor at a distance of 2.69 cm, and the toy is released. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2. If the toy has a mass of 115 g and rises to a maximum height of 64.5 cm, estimate the force constant of the spring in N/m.
A 5-kg collar A is at rest on top of, but not attached to, a spring with a stiffness k1 = 400 N/m when a constant force of 150 N is applied to the cable. Since A has a speed of 1 m/s when the upper spring is compressed 75 mm, determine the k2 spring stiffness. Neglect friction and the mass of the pulley. 450 mm. k₂ 75 mm k₁ 400 mm. B 150 N
A spring with a spring constant of k = 192 N/m is initially compressed by a block a distance d = 0.23 m. The block is on a horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction μk, static friction μs, and has a mass of m = 7 kg. How large would the coefficient of static friction μs need to be to keep the block from moving? Recall that to keep the block from moving, the acceleration is zero. Assuming the block has just begun to move and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.2, what is the block's acceleration in meters per square second?
Block A has a weight of 8 Ib and block B has weight of 6 Ib. They rest on a surface for which the coefficient of kinetic friction is u - 0.2. If the spring has a stiffness of k - 20 Ib/ft, and it is compressed 0.2 ft, determine the acceleration of block B just after they are released. Next Suhmit Ouiz

What are all the forces, and the net force, now that it is stopped? b) the steel cable is not infinitely strong, and it actually stretches by 2cm under the load of the buggy(still on the moon, remember!). What is the stiffness or spring constant of this elastic cable? Give units as well as magnitude.
A pulley-and-cable assembly supports a block W and it requires a force at P for equilibrium. Since block W has a mass of 30kg (g=9.806), calculate the force of the spring CD and the magnitude of force P.
