A rock is placed in a slingshot and the rubber band is stretched. The magnitude of the force of the rubber band on the rock is shown by the graph in FIGURE . The rubber band is stretched and then released. What is the speed of the rock?

a. How much work does an elevator motor do to lift a kg elevator a height of m?
b. How much power must the motor supply to do this in s at constant speed?
You throw a g coin straight down at m/s from a -m-high bridge.
a. How much work does gravity do as the coin falls to the water below? b. What is the speed of the coin just as it hits the water?
A weather rocket generates a thrust of The rocket, pointing upward, is clamped to the top of a vertical spring. The bottom of the spring, whose spring constant is , is anchored to the ground.
a. Initially, before the engine is ignited, the rocket sits at rest on top of the spring. How much is the spring compressed?
b. After the engine is ignited, what is the rocket’s speed when the spring has stretched
Two identical horizontal springs are attached to opposite sides of a box that sits on a frictionless table. The outer ends of the springs are clamped while the springs are at their equilibrium lengths. Then a force applied to the box, parallel to the springs, compresses one spring by while stretching the other by the same amount. What is the spring constant of the springs?
