Question: 1 . A = 7 0 mass is launched from rest by a = 2 compressed spring of stiffness = 6 3 0 . The

1. A=70 mass is launched from rest by a =2 compressed spring of stiffness =630. The mass moves across the horizontal surface and then down the 25 tall hill and is launched from end of the 3 tall ramp on the right inclined at =300 measured with respect to the horizontal. All surfaces the mass moves on are frictionless.
(a) Using the work-kinetic energy theorem, what is the speed of the mass at point A, just before the mass goes down the hill?
(b) Using energy ideas between points A and B, what is the launch speed of the mass from the end of the ramp?
(c) The mass eventually lands at point C. How far horizontally is point C from point B?
(d) How much work was done by gravity between points B and C?
