Hello, here is my question A spring with spring constant k = 3.75 N/cm is compressed 7.00 cm. A 1.50 kg mass is placed next to the compressed spring. When the spring is released, this mass moves without friction and collides with a stationary mass of 2.00 kg. The two masses stick together and move without friction up a slope angled at 20.0 degrees. (a) (10 points) How far along the slope does the two-mass system travel? (b) (5 points) If it takes 5.00*10-3 seconds from the initial impact for the two masses to stick together, what is the magnitude of the average contact force between the two blocks? (c) (5 points) The two-mass system will slide back down the slope and compress the spring. What is the spring’s maximum compression? Thank you!
Two sticky balls are swinging in this scenario. The first one has a mass of 0.021kg and has the speed of 1.51 m/s. The other sticky ball has a mass of 0.031 kg and has a speed of 0.51m/s. The other sticky has a velocity angle of 61 degrees relative to the first sticky ball. The balls impact each other and stick together.What are the speed and drection of the resulting sticky ball?

A Vulcan spaceship has a mass of 6.50 × 104 kg and a Romulan spaceship is twice as massive. Both have engines that generate the same total force of 9.50 × 106 N. If each spaceship fires its engine for the same amount of time, starting from rest and ignoring any change in mass due to whatever is expelled by the engines, calculate the energy of the Vulcan spaceship if the engines are fired for 102 s.
