1. A 55kg Olympic diver can jump .65 m high on solid ground. With the help of bouncing on the diving board, she can jump 2.5 m above the board. How much elastic energy is stored in the diving board? (Hint: make the initial situation when the diving board is bent down the most and the final situation when the diver is at her highest point.)

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j.b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
