hum The mass of the block depicted in the image is 1.66 kg. The spring has a spring constant of 74.5 N/m. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the floor is 0.536. Assume that the spring makes no contact with the floor and therefore friction only acts on the block. How far must the block and spring assembly be compressed to just barely overcome the force of static friction acting on the block? Report your result in meters.

Hanging from the ceiling over a baby bed, well out of baby’s reach, is a string with plastic shapes, as shown here. The string is taut (there is no slack), as shown by the straight segments. Each plastic shape has the same mass m , and they are equally spaced by a distance d , as shown. The angles labeled describe the angle formed by the end of the string and the ceiling at each end. The center length of sting is horizontal. The remaining two segments each form an angle with the horizontal, labeled . Let T1 be the tension in the leftmost section of the string, T2 , be the tension in the section adjacent to it, and T3 be the tension in the horizontal segment.

When a 3.0-kg block is pushed against a massless spring of force constant constant 4.5103N/m , the spring is compressed 8.0 cm. The block is released, and it slides 2.0 m (from the point at which it is released) across a horizontal surface before friction stops it. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface?
When a body of mass 0.25 kg is attached to a vertical massless spring, it is extended 5.0 cm from its unstretched length of 4.0 cm. The body and spring are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and rotated about the held end of the spring at 2.0 rev/s. How far is the spring stretched?
An archer must exert a force of 345 N on the bowstring shown in Figure (a) such that the string makes an angle of ? = 40.0° with the vertical. If the applied force is replaced by a stretched spring as in Figure (b) and the spring is stretched 27.0 cm from its unstretched length, what is the spring constant?
A block of mass ? = 300 g is released from rest from the top of a frictionless ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, a spring with a force constant ? = 400 N/m is fixed, as shown in the figure. If the maximum compression of the spring is 10 cm, determine the angle θ
A block slides on a rough horizontal surface. The block hits a spring with a speed of 2.00 m/s and compresses it adistance of 11.0 cm before coming to rest.

Physics students design an experiment to measure assorted coefficients of friction using a set-up similar to the one shown (not drawn to scale). A small balloon containing sand with a combined mass of 98.2gg is suspended with an ideal string of length 86.6cmcm, forming a simple pendulum. The pendulum is released from an angle of 41.4∘∘ with the vertical, and it collides with a block of mass 333gg located where the pendulum string becomes vertical. Because the balloon weighted with sand is soft and deformable, the collision is totally inelastic. The block slides for a distance of 30.8mmmm before coming to rest. a) Calculate the speed, in meters per second, of the sand-filled balloon at the instant prior to the collision. b) Calculate the speed, in meters per second, of the block at the instant following the collision. c)
A light spring with force constant 3.80 N/m is compressed by 7.44 cm as it is held between a 0.259-kg block on the left and a 0.518-kg block on the right, both resting on a horizontal surface. The spring exerts a force on each block, tending to push them apart. The blocks are simultaneously released from rest. Find the acceleration with which each block starts to move, given that the coefficient of kinetic friction ? between each block and the surface is the following. Answer parts a-c.
