Consider the system consisting of only the box, but not the spring or Earth. How does the energy of the system when the spring is fully compressed compare to the energy of the system at the moment immediately before the box hits the ground? Justify your answer.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

Two point charges are on the y axis. a 3.90-µc charge is located at y = 1.25 cm, and a -2.4-µc charge is located at y = −1.80 cm. (a) find the total electric potential at the origin. v (b) find the total electric potential at the point whose coordinates are (1.50 cm, 0). v
