4.2.4. [Level 1] A block of mass \( m \) is projected up a frictionless slope with speed \( v=8 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} \) and contacts a linear spring. What should the spring stiffness \( k \) be if the spring compression is to be limited to \( 10 \mathrm{~cm} ? m=2 \mathrm{~kg}, L=5 \mathrm{~m} \), and \( \theta=30^{\circ} \). E4.2.4

You push a $2.0 \mathrm{~kg}$ block against a horizontal spring, compressing the spring by $15 \mathrm{~cm} .$ Then you release the block, and the spring sends it sliding across a tabletop. It stops $75 \mathrm{~cm}$ from where you released it. The spring constant is $200 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m} .$ What is the blocktable coefficient of kinetic friction?
An inclined plane of angle $\theta=20.0^{\circ}$ has a spring of force constant $k=500 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel in Figure $\mathrm{P} 7.63 .$ A block of mass $m=2.50 \mathrm{kg}$ is placed on the plane at a distance $d=0.300 \mathrm{m}$ from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed $v=0.750 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ . By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest?
