Question

A box with mass of 150 kg is released from point A, 43 meters above the ground. The box slides without friction and then collides with a massless spring that is initially uncompressed.

a) What is the total energy of the system?

b) What is the speed of the box right before colliding with the spring?

After colliding with the spring, the box gets stuck to the spring and starts oscillating back and forth.

c) If the spring constant is 300 N/m, what is the amplitude of oscillation for the box-spring system?

d) When the spring is compressed by Δs = 1.5 m, find the speed of the box.

e) Find the maximum acceleration experienced by the box.

f) What is the period of oscillation?
