Question

The block is released from rest from the position in the picture and slides 6 meters down the frictionless incline. It strikes a spring that is at its natural length. Assume the spring is ideal and the mass of the spring is negligible. 

Mass of block = 20kg

Incline is 30 degrees above horizontal 

spring constant = 200 N/m

What is the speed of the block just before it hits the spring?
