A \(4.0 \, \text{kg}\) block is moving at \(5.0 \, \text{m/s}\) along a horizontal frictionless surface toward an ideal spring that is attached to a wall. After the block collides with the spring, the spring is compressed a maximum distance of \(0.68 \, \text{m}\).

A \( 25.0 \) \( \text{kg} \) block is initially at rest on a horizontal surface. A horizontal force of \( 75.0 \) \( \text{N} \) is required to set the block in motion, after which a horizontal force of \( 60.0 \) \( \text{N} \) is required to keep the block moving with constant speed.
A ski lift carries skiers along a \(695 \, \text{m}\) slope inclined at \(34^\circ\). To lift a single rider, it is necessary to move \(72 \, \text{kg}\) of mass to the top of the lift. Under maximum load conditions, five riders per minute arrive at the top. If \(65\%\) of the energy supplied by the motor goes to overcoming friction, what average power must the motor supply?

A \(2 \, \text{kg}\) ball is swung in a vertical circle. The length of the string the ball is attached to is \(0.7 \, \text{m}\). It takes \(0.4 \, \text{s}\) for the ball to travel one revolution (assume the ball travels at constant speed).

Two identical blocks are connected to the opposite ends of a compressed spring. The blocks initially slide together on a frictionless surface with velocity \( v \) to the right. The spring is then released by remote control. At some later instant, the left block is moving at \( \frac{v}{2} \) to the left, and the other block is moving to the right. What is the speed of the center of mass of the system at that instant?
