Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
The launching mechanism of a toy gun consists of a spring with an unknown spring constant, \( k \). When the spring is compressed \( 0.120 \, \text{m} \) vertically, a \( 35.0 \, \text{g} \) projectile is able to be fired to a maximum height of \( 25 \, \text{m} \) above the position of the projectile when the spring is compressed. Assume that the barrel of the gun is frictionless.
How does the time t1 of a block m reaching the bottom of slide 1 compare with t2, the time taken block of mass 2m to reach the end of slide 2 that’s curved? The blocks are released from the same height.
Refer to the diagram above and solve all equations in-terms of R, M, k, and constants.
A uniform solid cylinder of mass [katex] M [/katex] and radius [katex] R [/katex] is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A massless string is attached to the cylinder and is wrapped around it. The string is then pulled with a constant force [katex] F [/katex] , causing the cylinder to rotate about its center of mass. After the cylinder has rotated through an angle [katex] \theta [/katex], what is the kinetic energy of the cylinder in terms of [katex] F [/katex] and [katex] \theta [/katex]?
A 25 g steel ball is attached to the top of a 24-cm-diameter vertical wheel. Starting from rest, the wheel accelerates at [katex] 470 \, \frac{rad}{s^2}[/katex]. The ball is released after [katex]\frac{3}{4} [/katex] of a revolution. How high does it go above the center of the wheel?

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
