- A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 16 cm (0.16 m). A mass of 18 grams (0.018 kg) is attached and you stretch the spring to a total length of 29 cm (0.29 m). The mass is then released from rest. What is the speed of the mass at the moment when the spring returns to its relaxed length of 16 cm (0.16 m)? i m/sarrow_forwardA 500-g block is released from rest and slides down a frictionless track that begins 2.28 m above the horizontal, as shown in the figure below. At the bottom of the track, where the surface is horizontal, the block strikes and sticks to a light spring with a spring constant of 34.5 N/m.

One such arrangement is a leaf spring with a helper coil spring mounted on the axle, as in the figure below. The helper spring engages when the main leaf spring is compressed by distance Yo' then helps to support any additional load. Consider a leaf spring constant of 5.35 × 105 N/m, helper spring constant of 3.60 × 105 N/m, and y₁ = 0.500 m. Truck body Yo Axle (a) What is the compression of the leaf spring for a load of 4.10 × 105 N? 0.69 Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. m (b) How much work is done compressing the springs? J andarrow_forward
