USING CONSERVATION OF ENERGY AND WORK ENERGY PRINCIPLE:

A block of mass m=1.8 kg on a table is pushed against a spring that has a force constant of k=250 N/m, compressing it 20 cm (the block is not attached to the spring). The block is then released, and the spring pushes the block to move to the right. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is 0.45.

(a) Find the distance the block will travel before it stops. (b) Find the maximum speed of the block.
