3.g. A spring whose constant k = 343 N/m is supported so that it hangs vertically. A
mass of 70 kg is attached to the unstretched spring and released from rest so that it moves
vertically. At the instant when it was released the mass was a vertical height of 4 m above
the floor.
(a) Does the mass reach the floor and if so with what velocity?
(b) At what height above the floor is the speed of the mass a maximum and what is that
speed?
(c) Suppose the set-up is the same as above, but the 70 kg mass is replaced by a 50 kg
mass. At what heights above the floor is the mass instantaneously at rest?
(Hint: It is not necessary to do so, but you may find it useful to measure distances from
the point where the mass would be at rest in equilibrium.)

(a) How much work is done by the force Fp?; by gravity?; by normal force?
(b) If the block starts from rest, what is its speed at the end of the 5 m displacement?
(c) What is the average power developed by the force Fp?

3.2. Hockey puck #1 moving at 20 m/s makes an off-center elastic collision with an
identical hockey puck, #2, that is at rest on horizontal, frictionless ice. Puck #1 is
deflected at an angle of 20˚ from its original direction of motion. Find the velocity of
pucks #1 and #2 after the collision, including the direction in which #2 moves. (If you use
a special relation for the angles in equal mass elastic collisions, prove it to receive bonus
points)

3.m. Multiple choice answers are marked on the “Bubble Sheet”
(1) A particle moves 5 ft in the +x direction while being acted on by a constant force
→
F = (4i + 2 j ) lb. The work done on the particle by the force (in ft·lb) is:
(a) 20 ; (b) 10 ; (c) -10 ; (d) -20 ; (e) 30
(2) A force acting on a particle is called conservative if:
(a) its work is zero when the particle moves around a closed path returning to its
initial position
(b) its work equals the change in kinetic energy of the particle
(c) its work equals the change in total mechanical energy of the particle
(d) it obeys Newton’s third law
(e) it is not a frictional force
(3) A block is released from rest at point P and slides along the frictionless track shown.
At point Q its speed is:
P
(a) 2 g h1 − h2
(b) 2 g (h1 − h2 )
Q
(c) (h1 − h2 ) /( 2 g )
h1
(d) 2 g (h1 − h2 )
h2
(e) (h1 − h2 ) 2 /( 2 g )
(4) A particle of mass 6 kg is located at coordinates (x, y) = (1, 3), a second particle of
mass 5 kg is at (3, 2) and a third particle of mass 4 kg is at (0, 0). All distances are in
meters. The coordinates of the center of mass, (xCM, yCM), of the three particles are:
(a) (0, 0) ; (b) (1.3, 1.7) ; (c) (1.4, 1.9) ; (d) (1.9, 2.5) ; (e) (1.4, 2.5)
(5) A 2000 kg flatcar moves horizontally without friction with a velocity of 3 m/s. As
shown a 500 kg sack of coal is dropped vertically onto the flatcar. When the sack is at
rest on the flatcar, the speed of the flatcar is:
(a) 4 m/s
(b) 2.4 m/s
(c) 1.2 m/s
(d) 1.8 m/s
(e) impossible to say without more information
