okay i did that, and i got 11.86 cm/s, but it is still wrong (for b)

Please help with this problem! A 1.5 kg block is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 1950 N/m. The spring is then stretched a distance of 0.33 cm and the block is released from rest. (a) Calculate the speed of the block as it passes through the equilibrium position if no friction is...

The problem says to find the point between Mars and the Sun at which an object can be placed so that the net gravitational force exerted by Mars and the Sun on that object is zero. Here is what I've done so far, but I'm not getting the correct answer: F(sun) = F(mars)...

okay i tried that, but i am confused as to what to call the height in the initial PE. the only variables to be used are v,h and g. I could call it h, but that would mean it was the same h as the separation. this is what i have: (keep in mind that i do not know what to call the beginning h in...

Here is the problem: The system shown in Figure P8.20 consists of a light inextensible cord, light frictionless pulleys, and blocks of equal mass. It is initially held at rest so that the blocks are at the same height above the ground. The blocks are then released. Find the speed of block A...

I've been trying everything to solve this problem: It says: A block of mass m = 2.00 kg situated on a rough incline at an angle of = 37.0° is connected to a spring of negligible mass having a spring constant of 100 N/m. The pulley is frictionelss. The block is released from rest when the...
