k mass m = B Two blocks are on a frictionless horizontal tabletop. Block A has 0.2 kg and slides at a speed v = 2 m/s toward block A B of mass 4m, which is initially at rest. A coil spring, which obeys Hooke's law and has spring constant k = 860 N/m is attched to block B in such a way that it will be compressed when struck by block A, as shown in the figure below. (Ignore the mass of the spring.) What will be the maximum compression of the spring in units of meters?
