A block of mass m2 = 10.0 kg, at rest on a horizontal surface that has negligible friction, is connected to a spring which is initially not stretched or compressed. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall, and the spring constant is k = 90 N/m. Another block of mass m1 = 14.0 kg and speed v1 = 3.2 m/s collides with the 10.0 kg block. The blocks stick together, and compress the spring. What is the maximum compression of the spring?
A spring with a spring constant of 369 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.064 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.031 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.

In Michael Johnson's world-record 400 mm sprint, he ran the first 100 mm in 11.20 ss; then he reached the 200 mm mark after a total time of 21.32 ss had elapsed, reached the 300 mm mark after 31.76 ss, and finished in 43.18 ss. During what 100 mm segment was his speed the highest?
In 2011, artist Hans-Peter Feldmann covered the walls of a gallery at the New York Guggenheim Museum with 100,000 one-dollar bills (Fig. P1.48). Approximately how much would it cost you to wallpaper your room in one-dollar bills, assuming the bills do not overlap? Consider the cost of the bills alone, not other supplies or labor costs.

A small block of mass M = 150 g is placed on top of a larger block of mass 3M which is placed on a level frictionless surface and is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant k = 9.6 N/m. The coefficient of static friction between the blocks is μ = 0.2. The lower block is pulled until the attached spring is stretched a distance D = 2.5 cm and released. A: Assuming the blocks are stuck together, what is the maximum magnitude of acceleration amax of the blocks in terms of the variables in the problem statement? B: Calculate a value for the magnitude of the maximum acceleration amax of the blocks in m/s2. C: Write an equation for the largest spring constant kmax for which the upper block does not slip.

A block of mass m = 11.54 kg on a rough horizontal surface is attached to a light spring with spring/force constant k = 2.17 kN/m with the other end fixed. The block is pulled xi = 7.66 cm to the right from the equilibrium point and released from the rest. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough horizontal surface is μk = 0.2. When the block passes through the equilibrium point, what is the velocity of the block vf in m/s? Keep three significant figures for the answer. g = 9.80 m/s2.
A box of mass m = 0.36 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k1 = 694 N/m which has been compressed by a distance of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2 = 278 N/m. The box is not connected to the first spring and may slide freely. 1. Now assume friction is present on the surface in between the ends of the springs at their equilibrium lengths, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk = 0.5. If the distance between the springs is x = 1 m, how far d2, in meters, will the second spring now compress?
