Exercise 9
Spring and ramp
Theory used: Elastic potential energyConservation of mechanical energy
A block of mass rests against a spring of constant compressed by , on a smooth horizontal plane. Once the spring is released, the block moves up a smooth ramp. Compute the speed of the block after it leaves the spring and the maximum height it reaches on the ramp.
