Check Your Understanding Why would it hurt more if you snapped your hand with a ruler than with a loose spring, even if the displacement of each system is equal?
A block of mass m and speed v collides with a spring,compressing it a distance ∆x. What is the compression of thespring if the force constant of the spring is increased by a factorof four?
A bullet of mass 4 g moving with an initialspeed 300 m/s is fired into and passes througha block of mass 7 kg. The block, initially at rest on a frictionless,horizontal surface, is connected to a spring offorce constant 440 N/m. If the block moves a distance 1.5 cm to theright after the bullet passed through it, findthe speed v at which the bullet emerges fromthe block. Answer in units of m/s. Additionally, find the magnitude of the energy lost in thecollision. Answer in units of J.

Bumper car "A' , with mass 54.0 × 104 kg, coasts across a level track at 4.50 m/s when it collides elastically with a spring-loaded bumper car "B" at the end of the track. If the maximum compression of the spring during the collision is 1.80 m , what is spring constant of the spring on bumper car "B"?
Consider a springwith a force constant of 955 N>m. (a) Suppose the mass of theblock is 1.70 kg, but its initial speed can be varied. What initial speedis required to give a maximum spring compression of 4.00 cm?(b) Suppose the initial speed of the block is 1.09 m>s, but its masscan be varied. What mass is required to give a maximum springcompression of 4.00 cm?
A block A, of mass m = 10 Kg, compresses a spring of constant K = 1000 N / m in a length x = 3 cm. Starting from rest, the block is released, which moves from that moment on a horizontal surface without friction until it collides with another block B of mass m = 40 Kg, which was at rest. (Perfectly inelastic shock) and together they go up the channel (inclined surface) without friction, to later continue along a second horizontal plane without friction, at a height h with respect to the first (see Figure). Determine the energy variation that occurs in the collision .
A 25-g rifle bullet traveling 240 m/sm/s embeds itself in a 3.4-kg pendulum hanging on a 2.7-m-long string, which makes the pendulum swing upward in an arc. - Determine the vertical component of the pendulum's maximum displacement. (Change in y max).
a 3kg object is initally moving northward at 15m/s. then a force of 15N, towards the east, acts on it for 3.1 seconds. at the end of the 3.1 seconds, what is the magnitude of the objects final velocity?
Use the approximation that vavg = pf/m for each time step.A spring with a relaxed length of 25 cm and a stiffness of 13 N/m stands vertically on a table. A block of mass 79 g is attached to the top of the spring. You pull the block upward, stretching the spring until its length is now 28.4 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.) r = m p = kg · m/s
In the design of a spring cannon,determine the elastic spring constant, with two decimal places, required to launch a ball of 1.7 kg with an initial velocity of 9.3 m/s, from an initial position in which the spring is offset of 28cm in relation to the equilibrium point
