Recall: Gravitational Potential Energy
... SG A 0.5 kg mass is attached to a spring on a horizontal frictionless table. The mass is pulled to stretch the spring 5.0 cm and is released from rest. When the mass crosses the point at which the spring is not stretched, x = 0, its speed is 20 cm/s. If the experiment is repeated with a 10.0 cm init ...

... 41. A 2.1 x 103-kg car starts from rest at the top of a 5.0m-long driveway that is sloped at 20° with the horizontal. If an average friction force of 4.0 x 103 N impedes the motion, find the speed of the car at the bottom of the driveway. 42. A 25.0-kg child on a 2.00-m-long swing is released from r ...
