The spring’s mass, the recoil kinetic energy of the shuttle, and changes in gravitational potential energy will all be negligible, (a) What must the force constant of the spring be? (b) What distance must the spring be compressed?

A rifle bullet of mass 10 g is fired with a velocity o f800 m/s into a ballistic pendulum of mass 5 kg, suspended from a cord 1 m long. Computea) The vertical height through which the pendulum rises,b) The initial kinetic energy of the bullet,c) The kinetic energy of bullet and pendulum after the bullet is imbedded in the pendulum.
A spring with a spring constant of 335 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.045 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.045 kg is then held against the compressed spring and released from rest while upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. Assuming that the spring then pushes the mass across the surface, with speed does the mass leave the spring? Assume proper SI Units.
A 0.35 kg mass is held against a compressed spring with a spring constant of 89 N/m. The mass is initially at rest upon a horizontal surface and the spring force is directed parallel to the plane of the surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.86, with what speed does the mass leave contact with the spring if the spring is initially compressed by 0.232 m?

- Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 50 cm and holds it in position with a force of 150 N. If the mass of the arrow is 50 g and the “spring” is massless, what is the speed of the arrow immediately after it leaves the bow?arrow_forwardA fellow student tells you that she has both zero kinetic energy and zero potential energy. Is this possible? Explain.arrow_forwardA 6 000-kg freight car rolls along rails with negligible friction. The car is brought to rest by a combination of two coiled springs as illustrated in Figure P6.27 (page 188). Both springs are described by Hookes law and have spring constants k1 = 1 600 N/m and k2, = 3 400 N/m. After the first spring compresses a distance of 30.0 cm, the second spring acts with the first to increase the force as additional compression occurs as shown in the graph. The car comes to rest 50.0 cm after first contacting the two-spring system. Find the cars initial speed.arrow_forward

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.
