The theory of special relativity explains the connection between space and time to objects that move in a straight line at a constant speed. The objects move at the speed of light. When an object approaches light speed, its mass is endless and cannot move faster than light. The most crucial postulate of Einstein's special relativity is that the laws of nature do not change in each frame of reference.

After ripping the padding off a chair you are refurbishing, you notice that there are six springs beneath, which are intended to contribute equally in supporting your weight when you sit. You find a tag that indicates that the springs are identical and that each has a spring constant of 1.5 103 N/m. What would be the elastic potential energy stored in the six-spring system if you were to sit on the chair?
A small ball is tied to a string and hung as shown in Figure P8.34. It is released from rest at position 1, and, during the swing, the string meets a fixed peg as shown. Explain why position 2 at which the ball comes momentarily to rest must be at the same height as position 1.
A 0.250-kg block along a horizontal track has a speed of 1.50 m/s immediately before colliding with a light spring of force constant 4.60 N/m located at the end of the track. (a) What is the springs maximum compression if the track is frictionless? (b) If the track is not frictionless, would the springs maximum compression be greater than, less than, or equal to the value obtained in part (a)?
An intrepid physics student decides to try bungee jumping. She obtains a cord that is 9.00 m long and has a spring constant of 5.00 102 N/m. When fully suited, she has a mass of 70.0 kg. She looks for a bridge to which she can tie the cord and step off. Determine the minimum height of the bridge that will allow her to stay dry (that is, so that she stops just before hitting the water below). Assume air resistance is negligible.
A shopper weighs 3.00 kg of apples on a supermarket scale whose spring obeys Hookes law and notes that the spring stretches a distance of 3.00 cm. a. What will the springs extension be if 5.00 kg of oranges are weighed instead? b. What is the total amount of work that the shopper must do to stretch this spring a total distance of 7.00 cm beyond its relaxed position?
The launching mechanism of a toy gun consists of a spring of unknown spring constant, as shown in Figure P5.39a. If the spring is compressed a distance of 0.120 m and the gun fired vertically as shown, the gun can launch a 20.0-g projectile from rest to a maximum height of 20.0 m above the starting point of the projectile. Neglecting all resistive forces, (a) describe the mechanical energy transformations that occur from the time the gun is fired until the projectile reaches its maximum height, (b) determine the spring constant, and (c) find the speed of the projectile as it moves through the equilibrium position of the spring (where x = 0), as shown in Figure P5.39b. Figure P5.39
A 7.0-kg box slides along a horizontal frictionless floor at 1.7 m/s and collides with a relatively massless spring that compresses 23 cm before the box comes to a stop.

A light spring is attached to a block of mass 4m at rest on a frictionless, horizontal table. A second block of mass m is now placed on the table, in contact with the free end of the spring, and the two blocks are pushed together (Fig. P10.78). When the blocks are released, the more massive block moves to the left at 2.50 m/s. a. What is the speed of the less massive block? b. If m = 1.00 kg, what is the elastic potential energy of the system before it is released from rest? FIGURE P10.78
A block is hung from a vertical spring. The spring stretches (h = 0.0650 m) as shown for a particular instant in time in Figure P8.26. Consider the Earth, spring, and block to be in the system.

A spring-loaded toy gun is aimed vertically and fired after a spherical projectile of mass m = 30.0 g is loaded by compressing the spring with force constant k = 825 N/m a distance of 9.00 cm. As the projectile travels a total distance of 59.0 cm along the barrel of the gun, it experiences a friction force of 1.75 N. What is the height reached by the projectile above its initial location with the spring compressed?
A block on a frictionless, horizontal surface is attached to two springs as shown in Figure P8.28. The block is displaced, compressing one spring and stretching the other. a.

Is it possible to displace the block in such a way that the systems potential energy does not change? FIGURE P8.28
The launching mechanism of a toy gun consists of a spring of unknown spring constant, as shown in Figure P5.39a.
