A block of mass m = 2.0 kg is dropped from height h=27 cm onto a spring of spring constant k = 40 N/cm.  Determine the maximum distance (in cm) that the spring is compressed.  Use g = 10 N/kg.  (To simplify the problem and avoid a quadratic, ignore the change in gravitational potential energy during the spring's compression)
