Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 50 cm and holds it in position with a force of 150 N. If the mass of the arrow is 50 g and the “spring” is massless, what is the speed of the arrow immediately after it leaves the bow?
A 6 000-kg freight car rolls along rails with negligible friction. The car is brought to rest by a combination of two coiled springs as illustrated in Figure P6.27 (page 188). Both springs are described by Hookes law and have spring constants k1 = 1 600 N/m and k2, = 3 400 N/m. After the first spring compresses a distance of 30.0 cm, the second spring acts with the first to increase the force as additional compression occurs as shown in the graph. The car comes to rest 50.0 cm after first contacting the two-spring system. Find the cars initial speed.
A ball of mass m = 1.80 kg is released from rest at a height h = 65.0 cm above a light vertical spring of force constant k as in Figure P5.64a. The ball strikes the top of the spring and compresses it a distance d = 9.00 cm as in Figure P5.64b. Neglecting any energy losses during the collision, find (a) the speed of the hall just as it touches the spring and (b) the force constant of the spring.

Neglecting air resistance, how much would I have to raise the vertical height if I wanted to double the impact speed of a falling object?
A toy gun uses a spring with a force constant of 295 N/m to propel a 11-g steel ball. Assuming the spring is compressed 7.4 cm and friction is negligible, answer the following questions: What is the magnitude of the force, in Newton, that is needed to compress the spring? What is the maximum height, in meters, to which the ball can be shot? What is the gun’s maximum range, in meters, on level ground?
A block of mass 3.63 Kg slides on a frictionless horizontal tablet at a speed of 1.22 m/s. It comes to rest when it is in its path and compresses a spring whose force constant is 135 N/m. How much the spring is compressed???
The thrust generated by a singular jet engine produces a force of F = 95000 N. Which requires the airplane (with a mass of m = 6100 kg) a distance of d = 0.92 km to take off. What is the take-off speed of the airplane vt in m/s? How far in meters would you need to depress a giant spring k = 100,000 N/m in order to launch the airplane at the same speed without help from the engine?
The thrust produced by a single jet engine generates a force of F = 96000 N. Which requires the jet (with a mass of m = 9900 kg) a distance of d = 0.89 km to take off.What is the take-off speed of the jet vt in m/s? How far in meters would you need to depress a giant spring k = 100,000 N/m in order to launch the jet at the same speed without help from the engine?
A 60 g bullet with an initial speed of 700 m/s is fired parallel to a ramp at an angle 20° into a block of wood (mass 2.0 kg) initially at rest. The wood is on a horizontal frictionless table and is attached to a spring (k = 500 N/m) as shown. What is the maximum compression of the spring?
A spring that has a force constant of 1050 N/m is mounted vertically on the ground. A block of mass 1.00 kg is dropped from rest from height of 1.65 m above the free end of the spring. By what distance does the spring compress?
Sam is shooting a 10 kg rock using a catapult. The posts are 2 m apart and have an unstretched elastic band of the same length between them. The rock and band are pulled back by 1.5 m, which requires a force of 2000 N at the furthest point. How fast will the rock move when released?
