In a laboratory test, a car of mass 1200 kg is driven into a concrete wall, as shown in Fig. 2.1.
A video recording of the test shows that the car is brought to rest in 0.36 s when it collides
with the wall. The speed of the car before the collision is 7.5 m/s.

1. A block with a mass of 1kg is initially at rest while held in contact with a compressed spring.
The spring has a stiffness constant of 1000 N/m and is initially compressed by a length of 0.3
meters. Once the mass leaves the spring it will slide 1 meter across the surface of a table where
u, = 0.2 is the coefficient of kinetic friction. There are no frictional losses while the mass is in
contact with the spring, and there are no losses due to air resistance. Only losses are due to the
interaction with the table during the 1-meter slide. The surface of the table is 2 meters above the
floor.
What is the speed of the mass just before it hits the floor?

1 meter
