When a m = 12 kg mass is on a frictionless incline of 30 degrees and takes 270 N to compress a spring 2.0 cm: The block briefly stops when the spring is compressed to 5.5 cm a) How far did it travel. I found the answer is 35 cm b) What is the speed of the 12 kg block as it touches the spring? How do I do part b? I got the spring constant k = 13500 and used 1/2 kx^2 to find how many joules it has at compressing the spring to 5.5 cm. When I set that equal to 1/2 mv^2 I did not get the right answer. How would I go about finding b?
