Two massless springs with different spring constants k₁= 100 N/m and k₂ = 10 N/m are aligned vertically, as shown in figure 1. A block of mass m = 0.12 kg is placed on the bottom spring. The distance between the top of the box and the top spring is h = 0.35 m. You compress the bottom spring Ay = 0.3 m from its equilibrium position (figure 2). When you let go, the box flies up (figure 3) and compresses the top spring (figure 4). Treat the upward direction (↑) as positive, such that the compression of the top spring is a positive displacement. What is the maximum compression of the top spring due to the flying box?

1. In lecture I focused on a horizontal mass-spring system so we could ignore gravity, but in practice it's much easier to build a vertical mass-spring system. In the figure below, we can see a suspended spring with spring constant k both before and after a mass m is hooked to it. Y Yo yo is the equilibrium height of the spring (without the mass) and in the figure y = 0 is set at the ground. a) Using the coordinate system in the figure, show that Newton's second law for the hanging mass-spring system leads to the following differential equation: d²y dt² k (y - Yo) - g m b) Now define a new coordinate, y', related to y by a constant shift: y = y' + C, where C = constant. Show that if you choose the right value of C, Newton's second law is identical in form to a mass-spring system without gravity. What is the period of the system? c) Effectively, gravity just shifts the equilibrium position of the system, but the system still undergoes simple harmonic motion. What is the net force on the…

An ideal spring, with a pointer attached to its end, hangs next to a scale. With a 100 N weight attached, the pointer indicates "40" on the scale as shown. Using a 200N weight instead results in "60" on the scale. Using an unknown weight X results in "30" on the scale. The weight X is: Hint: Draw the force - Displacement diagram. 100 N O 1.20 N O 2.30 N O 3.40 N O 4.50 N O 5.70 N
