Mass on a Spring: A 0.16-kg block on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to an ideal spring whose force constant (spring constant) is 360 N/m. The block is pulled from its equilibrium position at x = 0.000 m to a position x = +0.080 m and is released from rest. The block then executes simple harmonic motion along the horizontal x-axis. When the position is x = -0.037 m, what is the acceleration of the block?

A. 83 m/s2 B. 43 m/s2 C. 64 m/s2 D. 270 m/s2 E. 370 m/s2

When gas in a container is squeezed to half its volume, its density is

1) halved, 2) unchanged, 3) doubled, 4) quadrupled, and neglecting any temperature changes we would find the gas pressure to be 5) halved. 6) unchanged. 7) doubled. 8) quadrupled.
