Answer: The box was moving with a velocity of 0.256m/s when it hit the spring
Explanation: Please see the attachments below
Even with no friction, it depends on the slope of the roof. That is, it depends on how much elevation (altitude) he loses during the slide.
Whatever that number is ... call it 'h' ... Santa's speed when he reaches the edge is
Square root of (19.6h) meters per second.
It doesn't matter how much he weighs, or how far he has slud. Only how much altitude he lost on the slope while sliding.
Answer:
A. Argon
Explanation:
It is a noble gas, a group which is not reactive.
At the point of maximum displacement (a), the elastic potential energy of the spring is maximum:

while the kinetic energy is zero, because at the maximum displacement the mass is stationary, so its velocity is zero:

And the total energy of the system is

Viceversa, when the mass reaches the equilibrium position, the elastic potential energy is zero because the displacement x is zero:

while the mass is moving at speed v, and therefore the kinetic energy is

And the total energy is

For the law of conservation of energy, the total energy must be conserved, therefore

. So we can write

that we can solve to find an expression for v:
