An object moving along a horizontal track collides with and compresses a light spring (which obeys Hooke's Law) located at the end of the track. The spring constant is 417 N/m, the mass of the object 0.250 kg and the speed of the object is 1.40 m/s immediately before the collision (a) Determine the spring's maximum compression (in m) if the track is frictionless x If the track is frictionless, what happens to the kinetic energy of the object? m
