Consider a spring that does not obey Hook's law. One end of the spring is held fixed. When it is stretched or compressed by an amount x, the force it exert is `F=ax-bx+cx^(2)` Where `a=50N//m b=150N//m^(2)` and `c=5000N//m^(3)` How much work must be done to stretch this spring by 1m from its unstretched length ?

In figure a spring with k = 168 N//m is in its relaxed length and is at the top of a frictionless incline of angle theta = 37^(@) . The lower end of the incline is at distance D = 1 m from the end of the spring. A small blcok of mass 2 kg is pushed against the spring until the spring is compressed by 0.2 m and released from rest. What is the speed of the block at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length (which is when the block loses contact with the spring)?

When a 4kg mass in hung vertically from a light spring that obeys Hooke's low, the spring stretches by 2 cm. The work that should be done by an external agent in stretching this spring by 5 cm will be (use g = 10 m//s^(2) )

In the adjoining diagram the ball A is released from rest when the spring is at its natural length (neither stretched nor compressed) For the block B of mass M to leave contact with the ground at some time, the minimum mass of A must be:
