A frictionless crate is attached to a spring with force constant 531 N/m. When the crate has a displacement of 0.35 m, it is moving to the negative x-direction with a velocity of 3.45 m/s . Determine the maximum force the spring exerts on the crate if the mass of the crate is 4.35 kg.
Physics students do an expriment to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between a wooden object and the horizontal table it is on. This object has a mass of 1.6 kg. The students push it against a spring, which compresses the spring by 18cm. When released, the spring sends the object moving across the table and it stops 82 cm from where it was released. The spring constant is 200 N/m. Find the obeject-table coefficient of kinetic friction.
One end of a spring is attached to a wall and the other end is attached to a block
of mass 3.45 kg. The spring has a spring constant of 71.8 N/m. The entire
assembly rests on a frictionless surface.
If the spring/block assembly is compressed (block is pushed to the left) by 30.9
cm, what is the acceleration of the block at the instant it is released after the
compression? (In this case, you may neglect the mass of the spring itself.) Report
your answer in m/s².

- A passenger railroad car has a total of 8 wheels. Springs on each wheel compress—slightly—when the car is loaded. Ratings for the car give the stiffness per wheel (the spring constant, treating the entire spring assembly as a single spring) as 2.8 x 107 N/m.
