1. A block with a mass of 1kg is initially at rest while held in contact with a compressed spring.
The spring has a stiffness constant of 1000 N/m and is initially compressed by a length of 0.3
meters. Once the mass leaves the spring it will slide 1 meter across the surface of a table where
u, = 0.2 is the coefficient of kinetic friction. There are no frictional losses while the mass is in
contact with the spring, and there are no losses due to air resistance. Only losses are due to the
interaction with the table during the 1-meter slide. The surface of the table is 2 meters above the
floor.
What is the speed of the mass just before it hits the floor?

Integrating the equation of motion, as applied to all particles in a system, yields ∑mi(vi)1+∑∫t2t1Fidt=∑mi(vi)2 where mi is the ith particle's mass, vi is the ith particle's velocity, and Fi is the external force that acts on the ith particle. This relationship states that the sum of the initial linear momenta, at time t1, and the impulses of all the external forces acting between times t1 and t2 is equal to the sum of the linear momenta of the system, at time t2. If the system has a mass center, G, the expression becomes m(vG)1+∑∫t2t1Fidt=m(vG)2 This expression allows the principle of linear impulse and momentum to be applied to a system of particles that is represented as a single particle.
