A block sliding along a frictionless, horizontal surface with a speed of 0.6 m/s collides with a spring attached to a wall. The spring is compressed 19.0 cm before the block is stopped. If the same block were to collide with the spring again while having a speed of 2.6 m/s, what would the spring's compression be before stopping the block this time, in centimetres? Be clear and show all your work. (HANDWRITTEN)

A 22-g bullet traveling 240 m/s penetrates a 2.0-kg block of wood and emerges going 150 m/s. If the block is stationary on a frictionless surface when hit, how fast does it move after the bullet emerges? please show your work, including diagrams, algebraic equations, and enough written explanations that somebody who is not familiar with the problem could understand what you are doing.
Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. A block of mass m1 = 1.72 kg, initially moving to the right with a velocity of +3.95 m/s on a frictionless horizontal track, collides with a massless spring attached to a second block of mass m2 = 2.01 kg moving to the left with a velocity of −2.83 m/s. The spring has a spring constant of 6.33 x102 N/m. (a) Determine the velocity of block 2 at the instant when block 1 is moving to the right with a velocity of +3.00 m/s. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) (b) Find the compression of the spring.
please do all sections and show all works step by step A block of mass m starts from rest and slides down a rough ramp inclined at an angle θ to the horizontal. There is a spring at the bottom of the ramp of spring constant k. The block slides a total distance L along the ramp when it momentarily comes to a rest, compressing the spring a maximum amount d. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is μk. a) Between the initial position at the top of the ramp to the final position at rest against the spring, which individual force(s) do: i) positive work, ii) negative work, and iii) zero work on the block? b) Write an expression for the maximum amount the spring is compressed, d, in terms ofμk, L, m,g, k and θ.

A block with mass 0.50 kg is forced against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of 0.20 m (see figure below). When released, the block moves on a horizontal tabletop for 1.00 m before coming to rest. The spring constant k is 100 N/m. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction, µk, between the block and the tabletop? Show the FBD of the box in your solution.
