A spring-loaded dart gun is used to shoot a dart straight up into the air. When fully compressed, the dart reaches a maximum height of \( h_1 \) above its release point. The same dart is shot up a second time from the same gun, but this time the spring is compressed at \( 1/2.14 \) as compared to the first shot.How high, \( h_2 \), does the dart go the second time in terms of the maximum height \( h_1 \)? Fill in the missing factor below. (Neglect friction and assume the spring is ideal.)[Hint: Use the first situation to find an expression for the spring constant. Use that expression to solve for the height in the second situation.]\[ h_2 = \, \_\_\_\_\_ \, h_1 \]

Mr. M pushes a box, that has a mass of 2.5 kg against a spring (k=1234 N/m) that is attached to a wall so that it compresses 14 cm and is at rest. The surface the spring is attached to is on a level 0.55m above the ground (refer to diagram). Once the block leaves the block, it encounters friction on the surface. The length of the surface is 1.5m and has a coefficient of friction of 0.11. Once it leaves the frictional surface, the box travels DOWN a frictionless ramp onto a level surface on the ground. How fast is the block going when it gets to the level surface?
A 0.1 kg disk is shot across a frictionless horizontal surface by compressing it against a spring and releasing it. The spring has a spring constant of 380 N/m and is compressed from its equilibrium position by 6.2cm when the disk to a complete stop. As the disk gets released from the spring, what will be the speed (in m/s) of the disk when the spring is compressed by 3.8cm?
A spring-loaded toy gun is used to shoot a ball of mass m = 1.50 kg straight up in the air, as shown in (Figure 1). The spring has spring constant k = 667 N/m.

Problem 6: A child's toy consists of a m = 42 g monkey suspended from a spring of negligible mass and spring constant k.
