A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.30-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.00 cm and has a force constant of 8.00 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.0 cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and the barrel exerts a constant friction force of 0.032 0 N on the ball. (a) With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of the cannon? (b) At what point does the ball have maximum speed? (c) What is this maximum speed?

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.80g projectile. The spring is originally compressed by 8.00cm and has a force constant of 15.54 N/m. When the spring is released, the projectile slides 15.0cm through the barrel of the cannon where the barrel exerts a constant fictional force on the projectile. The projectile leaves the barrel of the cannon with a speed of 3.50m/s. The barrel of the cannon makes a 60 degree angle with respect to the horizontal surface. Neglect any air resistance or any rotational effects. Assume that the projectile's starting elevation is at ground level. What is the force of kinetic friction between the projectile and the barrel of the cannon? What is the maximum height of the projectile above ground level during its flight? How long does it take the projectile to reach its height?

The spring of a spring gun has force constant k = 400 N/m andnegligible mass. The spring is compressed 6.00cm and a ball withmass 0.0300kg is placed in the horizontal barrel against thecompressed spring. The spring is then released, and the ball ispropelled out the barrel of the gun. The barrel is 6.00cm long, sothe ball leaves the barrel at the same point that it loses contactwith the spring. The gun is held so the barrel is horizontal.
a)Calculate the speed with which the ball leaves the barrel if youcan ignore friction.

b)Calculate the speed of the ball as it leaves the barrel if aconstant resisting force of 6.00N acts on the ball as it movesalong the barrel.

c)For the situation in part B, at what position along the barreldoes the ball have the greatest speed? (In this case, the maximumspeed does not occur at the end of the barrel.)

d)What is that greatest speed?

i think i got all of them except the last one... d)

A spring-loaded toy gun is aimed vertically and fired after a spherical projectile of mass m=30.0 g is loaded by compressing the spring with force constant k=825 N/m at a distance of 9.00 cm. As the projectile travels a total distance of 59.0 cm along the barrel of the gun, it experiences a friction force of 1.75 N. What is the height reached by the projectile above its initial location with the spring compressed?
