A 0.420 kg block of wood rests on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to a spring (also horizontal) with a 20.5 N/m force constant that is at its equilibrium length. A 0.0600 kg wad of Play-Doh is thrown horizontally at the block with a speed of 2.80 m/s and sticks to it. Determine the amount by which the Play-Doh-block system compresses the spring.

What statements accurately describe atoms

Suppose you have a box. which of these is not necessarily a true statement regarding the relationship between the force applied to the box, the work done on the box, and the distance the box is moved? a. if the box is not moved, no force is being applied to the box. b. if no force is applied to the box, no work is done on the box. c. if work is done on the box, then a force is applied to the box. d. if work is done on the box, then the box is moved a distance.

The experiment done in lab is repeated, using a ball that has unknown mass m. you plot your data in the form of f 2 versus m/l, with f in rev/s, m in kg, and l in m. your data falls close to a straight line that has slope 3.19 m/(kg · s2). use g = 9.80 m/s2 and calculate the mass m of the ball.
