A spring whose spring constant is 850 N/m is compressed 0.40 m.  What is the maximum speed it can give to a 500. g ball? 4.    If the spring in #3 were compressed twice as much, how many times greater would the velocity of the ball be?

Arotating space station is said to create “artificial gravity”—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. the outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. if the space station is 200 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an “artificial gravity” of 9.80 m/s^{2} 2 at the rim?
