An inclined plane of angle = 20.0 has a spring of force constant k = 500 N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface as shown in Figure P6.61. A block of mass m = 2.50 kg is placed on the plane at a distance d = 0.300 m from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed v = 0.750 m/s. By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest?
A man unloads a 5.0-kg box from a moving van by giving it an initial speed of 1.3 m/s down a ramp that makes an angle of 20 with the horizontal. It slides with negligible friction for 2.7 m along the ramp before reaching the mans helper. What is the speed of the box as the helper catches it?
In a laboratory experiment, 1 a block of mass M is placed on a frictionless table at the end of a relaxed spring of spring constant k. 2 The spring is compressed a distance x0 and 3 a small ball of mass m is launched into the block as shown in Figure P11.22.

You have been asked to design a "ballistic spring system" to measure the speed of bullets. A bullet of mass m is fired into a block of mass M. The block, with the embedded bullet, then slides across a frictionless table and collides with a horizontal spring whose spring constant is k. The opposite end of the spring is anchored to a wall. The spring's maximum compression d is measured.What was the speed of a 2.1 g bullet if the block's mass is 1.5 kg and if the spring, with k = 40 N/m , was compressed by 15 cm ?
Help PlZZ The Dread Pirate Roberts is trying to fire a 12 kg cannon ball from a 250 kg cannon. In order to prevent the cannon from recoiling across the deck of the ship, he attaches a large spring behind the cannon, with the spring’s other end braced firmly against the ship’s frame. When the cannon is fired, the ball is launched forward at 90 kilometers per hour. Subsequently, the cannon pushes backwards and compresses the spring by 60 cm. What is the spring constant k of the spring?
