A mass m slides along a frictionless horizontal surface at speed v0. It strikes a spring
Chapter 13, Problem 43(choose chapter or problem)
A mass m slides along a frictionless horizontal surface at speed v0. It strikes a spring of constant k attached to a rigid wall, as shown in Fig. 13.28. After an elastic encounter with the spring, the mass heads back in the direction it came from. In terms of k, m, and v0, determine (a) how long the mass is in contact with the spring and (b) the springs maximum compression. v0 u m Figure 13.28 43
