Problem
A 1.5 kg block slides along a horizontal surface at 3.0 m/s and compresses a spring of force constant 200 N/m until it momentarily stops. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.20 over the entire compression distance. Determine the maximum compression of the spring in meters.
