spring clamped to the table shoots Block 1 (110 g, wood) directly into Block 2 (80 g, steel), this perfectly elastic collision will launch the second block up a ramp. When the spring is compressed 14 cm, the block travels up a ramp that has a height of 86 cm and then compresses another spring (310 N/m) at the top, 5 cm.
