How far must the spring be compressed for an amount 3.20 J
of potential energy to be stored in it?
You place the spring vertically with one end on the floor. Youthen drop a book of mass 1.30 kg onto it from a height of 0.500m
above the top of the spring. Find the maximum distance thespring will be compressed.
Take the free fall acceleration to be 9.80 m/s2
