A block – spring system consists of a spring with constant k= 425 N/m attached to a 2.00 - kg block on a frictionless surface. The block is pulled 0.08 m from equilibrium and released from rest. For the resulting oscillation, find the max acceleration.

A 8 kg block is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 125 N/m. The block slides back and forth on a smooth horizontal table, with the other end of the spring fixed to a wall. You displace the block 0.07 meters away from the equilibrium position and let go of the block. What is the period of the oscillations for the spring-mass system?

A 0.6 kg block is released from rest and slides down a frictionless track that begins 2.00 m above the horizontal. At the bottom of the track, where the surface is horizontal, the block strikes and sticks to a light spring with a spring constant of 30.0 N/m. Find the maximum distance the spring is compressed.

Taylor Swift has a simple pendulum. When it swings back and forth, the period of this pendulum is 3.2 seconds while on Earth. Kanye West steals Taylor’s pendulum, boards a spaceship, and travels to his home planet in a faraway unknown galaxy. On Kanye’s home planet, the same pendulum now has a period of 4.5 seconds. What is the acceleration of gravity on Kanye’s home planet?
