2. A block of mass 0.25 kg is pushed against a spring of spring constant 80 N/m. It can slide without friction along a board tilted at an angle 30° above horizontal. Initially the block is released from rest when the spring is compressed by a distance 0.3 m. a. What is the speed of the block when the block loses contact with the spring? This occurs when the spring is back to its relaxed length. b. What is the distance the block will slide along the ramp before it starts coming back down? Give the distance from the initial position of the block when the spring was compressed.
