Problem

A 1.5 kg1.5\,\text{kg} block slides across a frictionless horizontal surface at 3.0 m ⁣⋅ ⁣s−13.0\,\text{m}\!\cdot\!\text{s}^{-1} and compresses an ideal spring of constant k=200 N ⁣⋅ ⁣m−1k = 200\,\text{N}\!\cdot\!\text{m}^{-1} fixed to a wall. What is the maximum compression of the spring? (a) 0.18 m0.18\,\text{m} (b) 0.26 m0.26\,\text{m} (c) 0.15 m0.15\,\text{m} (d) 0.36 m0.36\,\text{m}
