A cart attached to a spring is displaced from equilibrium and then released. There is no friction. A graph of velocity as a function of time is shown in the figure. The arrow and sign above indicate the positive and negative direction for the position of the cart.

What is the period of motion of this cart?

There is a compressed spring between two laboratory carts of masses m1 = 145 g and m2 = 272 g.

Initially, the carts are held at rest on a horizontal track as shown in figure A. The carts are released, and the cart of mass m1 has velocity v1 = 2.135 m/s in the positive x-direction as in figure B. Assume rolling friction is negligible. What is the velocity of cart 2?

There is a compressed spring between two laboratory carts of masses and and . Initially, the carts are held at rest on a horizontal track (figure a). The carts are released, and the cart of mass has velocity in the positive x direction (figure b). Assume rolling friction is negligible.

a. What is the net external force on the two-cart spring system?

b. Find an expression for the velocity of cart 2.

c. Sometimes, mistakes are made in a laboratory. For example, what changes in parts (a) and (b) if the track is not level as shown in figure (c). Explain your answer. 

Given a graph of Force vs. Position, where you have theforcefunction on the x-axis and the position function on they-axis, theinitial position is 0.0 and then it increases linearlyuntil itreaches 5.0meters where the force in (N) is about 12. Somyquestion is: This graph is for the force exerted by a spring asafunction of distance it is stretched from itsunstrechedlength.

a) What is the spring constant for this spring

b) What is the elastic PE if the spring is stretched 1.5 m fromitsequilibrium length

c) A Low friction cart of mass 5.0kg is attached to the spring,whenthe spring is stretched 1.5 m from its equilibrium length andthenthe cart is released what is the kinetic energy of the cartjust asthe spring passes through its equilibrium length? What isthevelocity of the cart at this position?
