Problem 1: Block A in the figure has mass 2.00 kg, and block B has mass 5.00 kg. The blocks are forced together, compressing a spring S between them; then the system is released from rest on a level, frictionless surface. The spring, which has negligible mass, is not fastened to either block and drops to the surface after it has expanded. Block B acquires a speed of 1.80 m/s. ma тв (a) What is the final speed of block A? (1.5 pts) (b) How much potential energy was stored in the compressed spring? (2.5 pts) (c) What was the maximum compression in the spring if the spring constant 500 N/m. (1 pts)
