Student A block attached to a horizontal spring is displaced along the x axis from an initial position of x = -4.00 cm to a final position of xf = -2.00 cm. The origin (x = 0) is placed at the unstretched length of the spring. Determine if the change in potential energy of the spring-block system is positive, negative, or zero.

A free-floating ball is attached to three springs that are anchored to posts at points (0,0), (0, 1), and (2, 0) on the plane, each with the same spring constant k = 2kg/s. The ball will eventually come to rest at the point that will minimize the total (elastic potential) energy of the system. Find the coordinates of this point where the ball comes to rest. %3D
