    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    AWESOME! thanks guys :)

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    so i ended up as .5*.8*(1.2)^2 = .5*50 *x^2 does that sound right ? equaling 0.152m

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    i got 0.152 so 0.152M?

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    wait wait, working it out now.

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    so that means that its 1/2kx^2 = 0 ? then just rearrange and solve ? because the KE = .5mv^2 = 0 because velocity is 0 at the point of maximum compression ?

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    and this is a work done question.

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    we're trying to calculate the maximum compression of the spring made by the block before the block goes in the other direction and ed, i do understand the block will be stationary for a split second, but i have no idea on the formula to use to answer the question :$

    Solve Spring Force Collision: Mass 0.8 kg, k = 50 N/m

    Spring forces, etc... :( Homework Statement Doing past exams before a real exam and i completely missed this whole section of lectures. lol A Block of mass 0.800kg is given an intitial velocity v = 1.2m/s to the left and collides with a light spring of force constant k = 50.0N/mHomework...
