Question 1173420: A mass less spring located on smooth surface is compressed by a force of 6 3.5 N 1 , which results in a displacement of 4 * 35 cm from the equilibrium position. A steel ball of mass 0.075 kg is then placed in front of the spring and the spring is released. What is the speed of the steel ball when it shot of the spring ?

Your post creates MANY QUESTIONS:

    1)   What is  " a force of  6 3.5 N 1 "    ???   How to read/(to understand) it ???



    2)   What is " a displacement of  4 * 35 cm "   ???  // it is absurdist format and absurdist LARGE displacement for such problems . . .  



    3)  The question is formulated in a way making its meaning dark.

What is the source of this problem ?

It is definitely the source I would not trust in.
