Question
A 2-kg block is pushed against a spring with negligible mass and force constant of 400N/m compressing it 0.22m. When the block is released, it moves along a frictionless, horizontal surface and then up a frictionless incline with slope 37o. (a) what is the speed of the block as it slides along the horizontal surface after having left the spring? (b) How far does the block travel up the incline before starting to slide back down?

- A particle can move along only an x axis, where conservative forces act on it (see the figure and the table below). The particle is released at x = 5.00 m with a kinetic energy of K = 14.0 J and a potential energy of U = 0.0 J. If its motion is in the negative direction of the x axis, what are its (a) K and (b) U at x = 2.00 m and its (c) K and (d) U at x = 0? If its motion is in the positive direction of the x axis, what are its (e) K and (f) U at x = 11.0 m, its (g) K and (h) U at x = 12.0 m, and its (i) K and (j) U at x = 13.0 m?
