Self-practice - A smooth \( 2-\mathrm{kg} \) collar \( C \), fits loosely on the vertical shaft. If the spring is unstretched when the collar is in the position \( A \), determine the speed at which the collar is moving when \( y=1 \mathrm{~m} \) if it is released from rest at \( A \).

Step 1
First, we need to find the potential energy of the spring when the collar is at position A. The spring is unstretched at this position, so the potential energy is 0. Show more…

The $2-1 b$ collar $C$ fits loosely on the smooth shaft. If the spring is unstretched when $s=0$ and the collar is given a velocity of 15 ft $/ \mathrm{s}$, determine the velocity of the collar when $s=1 \mathrm{ft}$.
The spring has a stiffness $k=200 \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ and an unstretched length of $0.5 \mathrm{m}$. If it is attached to the 3 -kg smooth collar and the collar is released from rest at $A$ determine the speed of the collar when it reaches $B$. Neglect the size of the collar.
The 10 -kg collar slides on the smooth vertical rod and has a velocity $v_{1}=2 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ in position $A$ where each spring is stretched $0.1 \mathrm{m} .$ Calculate the velocity $v_{2}$ of the collar as it passes point $B$.
