What is the maximum compression of the spring
: A mass (m1 = 3.0 kg) with initial velocity V0 = 2.0 m/s strikes a mass-spring system (m2 = 1.0 kg) initially at rest but able to recoil. The spring is massless with spring constant k = 7.5 N/m. There is no friction. Is momentum conserved in this c..

Calculate the moment of inertia with respect to an axis
: The masses are Q=0.400 kg, R=0.700 kg, and S=0.800 kg. Calculate the moment of inertia (of the 3 masses) with respect to an axis perpendicular to the xy plane and passing through x=0 and y=-2. [Since the masses are of small size, you can neglect t..
