A toy car of mass m is pushed against a spring, compressing it a distance d from its natural rest length. The spring exerts a force F(x) = −(kx + ßx5)ix, where x is the displacement from its equilibrium position at the origin. The car is then released from rest and slides on a table with coefficient of friction µ. (i) What is the car's speed when it reaches the origin? (ii) If the car detaches from the spring when it reaches the origin, derive an equation that could be solved to find the location of the car when it comes to rest (do not solve).
