An inclined plane of angle e=20° has a spring of force constant k=500 N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface. A block of mass m=2.50 kg is placed on the plane at a distance d=D0.300 m from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed v30.750 m/s. By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest? O 0.131 m O 0.231 m O 0.311 m O 0.023 m

An inclined plane of angle e=20° has a spring of force constant k=500 N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface. A block of mass
m=2.50 kg is placed on the plane at a distance d3D0.300 m from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed v30.750
m/s. By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest?
O 0.131 m
O 0.231 m
O 0.311 m
O 0.023 m
