Example: Spring Launch A 200 g block on a frictionless surface is pushed against a spring with spring constant 500 N/m, compressing the spring by 2.0 cm. When the block is released, at what speed does it shoot away from the spring? Slide 10-23

A 2.0 g desert locust can achieve a takeoff speed of 3.6 m/s (comparable to the best human jumpers) by using energy stored in an internal “spring” near the knee joint. A.When the locust jumps, what energy transformation takes place? B.What is the minimum amount of energy stored in the internal spring? C.If the locust were to make a vertical leap, how high could it jump? Ignore air resistance and use conservation of energy concepts to solve this problem. D.If 50% of the initial kinetic energy is transformed to thermal energy because of air resistance, how high will the locust jump? Slide 10-24 Spring Launch 2

Example: Spring Launch 3 A 50 g wooden cube on a 30 degree (to the horizontal) wooden slope is held against a spring, of spring constant 25 N/m. The spring is compressed 10 cm. Consider the coefficient of friction for ice on wood to be 0.20. When the cube is released and launched up the ramp, what total distance will it travel up the slope before reversing direction?

Work Energy Problem 1 Slide 10-23 Solve this problem two ways, with Newton's 2nd Law and with the Work-Energy Theorem 1. A 200 g Ball is lifted upward on a string. It goes from rest to a speed of 2 m/s in a distance of 1 m. What is the tension (assumed to stay constant) in the string?

A 1000 kg car is rolling slowly across a level surface at 1 m/s, heading towards a group of small children. The doors are locked so you can't get inside and use the brake. Instead, you run in front of the car and push on the hood at an angle 30 degrees below the horizontal. How hard must you push to stop the car in a distance of 1 m?
