A 0.500 kg ball is attached to one end of a spring with negligible mass and one end fixed on the wall as shown in the figure above. The spring-ball system lies on a plane inclined at 33.0° above the horizontal and whose coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.220. Initially, the ball is pulled up the slanted surface with a force of 180 N stretching the spring to a distance 15.0 cm from its normal length. The system was then released allowing the spring to return to equilibrium with the ball still attached to it. What is the speed of the ball when the spring returns to equilibrium

Question

A 0.500 kg ball is attached to one end of a spring with negligible
mass and one end fixed on the wall as shown in the figure above.
The spring-ball system lies on a plane inclined at 33.0° above the
horizontal and whose coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.220.
Initially, the ball is pulled up the slanted surface with a force of
180 N stretching the spring to a distance 15.0 cm from its normal
length. The system was then released allowing the spring to return
to equilibrium with the ball still attached to it. What is the speed
of the ball when the spring returns to equilibrium?
