Ablock of 5 kg moves with v = 6 m/s on a horizontal surface without friction, addressing a spring whose constant elastic is equal to 400 n/m and having one of its ends attached to a wall. the mass of the spring is negligible.
a) the maximum distance that the spring can be compressed.
b) if the maximum distance that the spring could be compressed was 0.150 meters, what would be the value of v?

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.

given values:

mass = 0.3 kg.

cant without the picture! ?

the maxium height is 34m/s
