The 2-kg block slides in a frictionless slot that lies in the vertical plane. The stiffnesses of springs A and B attached to the block are kA = 80 N/m and kB = 40 N/m. When the block is in position 1, spring A is compressed 0.2m and spring B is undeformed. If the block is launched in position 1 with the speed v1 down the slot, find the smallest v1 that will enable the block to reach position 2.
