Randall D. Knight β Work and Kinetic Energy: Problem 30
A horizontal spring with spring constant of 80 N/m extends outward from a wall just above floor level. A 1.8 kg box sliding across a frictionless floor hits the end of the spring and compresses it 9 cm before the spring expands and shoots the box back out. How fast was the box moving when it hit the spring?
π Solution Approach
Given: 80 N, . A, 1.8 kg, 9 cm
