( ANSWER e,f, and g ), a is given ) You have two equal masses m1 and m2 and a spring with a spring constant k. The mass m1 is connected to the spring and placed on a frictionless horizontal surface at the relaxed position of the spring. You then hang mass m2, connected to mass m1 by a massless cord, over a pulley at the edge of the horizontal surface. When the entire system comes to rest in the equilibrium position, the spring is stretched an amount d1 as shown in figure (a). You are given the following information. ( ANSWER E,F, and G ), A is given ) The mass m1 = m2 = 0.500 kg.The spring constant k = 290 N/m.

The force required to compress a non-standard spring as a function of displacement from equilibrium x is given by the equation F(x) = ax2 - bx, where a = 55 N/m2, b = 8 N/m, and the positive x direction is in the compression direction of the spring.
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?

A spring is attached to a block with a mass of 2.33 kg. The block is set on a rough horizonal surface, and you pull horizontally on the other end of the spring, steadily increasing the force. As soon as the spring stretches 0.126 m beyond its equilibrium length, you notice the block starts to move. If the spring constant is 75.8 N/m, what is the coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface?
In the figure, the blocks have masses mA = 3.0 kg and mB = 5.0 kg.
