A ball of mass m is attached to a spring and oscillating with an angular frequency ω. It has a maximum velocity of vm. What is the magnitude of the force the spring exerts on the mass, when it reaches its maximum amplitude of oscillation?
A Rebounding Block A metal block of mass 3 kg is moving downward with speed 2 m/s when the bottom of the block is 0.8 mabove the floor (Figure 7.19). When the bottom of the block is 0.4 m above the floor, it strikes the top of a relaxed vertical spring 0.4 m in length. The stiffness of the spring is 2000 N/m.
