    How Does Compressing a Spring Store and Release Energy?

    I was trying to work on this for a little but couldn't figure it out. A. A spring with a spring constant k=30 N/m is compressed and latched at 0.10 m. How much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring? ? 0.15 J B. An object with a mass of 5.0 kg is placed next to the...

    2kg ball in simple harmonic motion

    a 2-kg ball is supended from a spring. when disturbed in a vertical direction, the ball moves up and down in simple harmonic motion with a period of 0.25s. a. what is the upward force exerted on the ball by the spring when the ball is at the midpoint of its up-and-down path? b. how much...

    Calculating Time of Collision for Dropped Stone and Thrown Ball

    A stone is dropped off a cliff of height h. at the same instant a ball is thrown straight up from the base of the cliff with initial velocity (vi). assuming the ball is thrown hard enough, at what time t will stone and ball meet? (neglect air resistance) I just don't even know how to...
