A spring constant of 250.0 N/m is suspended vertically with its upper end fixed to the ceiling and its lower end at position y=0.000 cm. A block of weight 25.0 N is attached to the lower end, held still for a moment and then released. What are the kinetic energy changes and the changes from initial values in the gravitational potential energy of the spring-block system when the block is at values of y equal to (a) -5.00 cm (b) -10.0 cm (c) -15.0 cm (d) -20.0 cm? Tabulate your results, Include units at the top of each column.
