- A motionless block with mass m=15 kg is being pulled by a spring with a spring constant of k=30 N/m on a flat surface. If the coefficients of friction are us =0.72 andu=0.4 what is the maximum distance that the spring will stretch before the block starts moving? Answer symbolically: Answer numerically: Units:arrow_forwardA 0.81-kg block is hung from and stretches a spring that is attached to the ceiling. A second block is attached to the first one, and the amount that the spring stretches from its unstretched length triples. What is the mass of the second block?

The block is in equilibrium (Fnet = 0) and the cable has a tension of 16 N. Determine the normal force on the block and how much the spring stretched. FN l=| xarrow_forwardQuestions 2-5 reference the picture of mass attached to a spring shown. The left most picture gives the spring in its relaxed (equilibrium) position. The mass is lifted to point "B" and let go such that it oscillates up and down as shown in the right most position. Positions B and C are its highest and lowest points while bouncing. Point A is where the mass is traveling the fastest. Neglect air drag. 100 g B A 100 g 100 g At what point will the mass have the largest elastic (spring) potential energy?
