Problem
A block of mass 0.50kg is released from rest at a point 0.40m above the upper end of a light vertical spring fixed to the ground. The spring has force constant 200Nm−1. Neglecting any energy losses, calculate the maximum compression produced in the spring before the block momentarily comes to rest.
