An inclined plane of angle = 20.0 has a spring of force constant k = 500 N/m fastened securely at the bottom so that the spring is parallel to the surface as shown in Figure P6.61. A block of mass m = 2.50 kg is placed on the plane at a distance d = 0.300 m from the spring. From this position, the block is projected downward toward the spring with speed v = 0.750 m/s. By what distance is the spring compressed when the block momentarily comes to rest?
A 6 000-kg freight car rolls along rails with negligible friction. The car is brought to rest by a combination of two coiled springs as illustrated in Figure P6.27 (page 188). Both springs are described by Hookes law and have spring constants k1 = 1 600 N/m and k2, = 3 400 N/m. After the first spring compresses a distance of 30.0 cm, the second spring acts with the first to increase the force as additional compression occurs as shown in the graph. The car comes to rest 50.0 cm after first contacting the two-spring system. Find the cars initial speed.
A block A, of mass m = 10 Kg, compresses a spring of constant K = 1000 N / m in a length x = 3 cm. Starting from rest, the block is released, which moves from that moment on a horizontal surface without friction until it collides with another block B of mass m = 40 Kg, which was at rest. (Perfectly inelastic shock) and together they go up the channel (inclined surface) without friction, to later continue along a second horizontal plane without friction, at a height h with respect to the first (see Figure). Determine the energy variation that occurs in the collision .
Bumper car "A' , with mass 54.0 × 104 kg, coasts across a level track at 4.50 m/s when it collides elastically with a spring-loaded bumper car "B" at the end of the track. If the maximum compression of the spring during the collision is 1.80 m , what is spring constant of the spring on bumper car "B"?

A block of mass m2 = 10.0 kg, at rest on a horizontal surface that has negligible friction, is connected to a spring which is initially not stretched or compressed. The other end of the spring is fixed to a wall, and the spring constant is k = 90 N/m. Another block of mass m1 = 14.0 kg and speed v1 = 3.2 m/s collides with the 10.0 kg block. The blocks stick together, and compress the spring. What is the maximum compression of the spring?
A box of mass 60.0 g slides at 25.0 m/s along a horizontal frictionless surface, and makes a perfectly elastic collision with a box of mass 370 g that is initially at rest. The second box then slides into a spring with spring constant 18.0 N/m that stops the box and sends it back in the other direction. What is the maximum compression of the spring relative to its equilibrium position during this process?A. 18.8 m.B. 2.58 m.C. 0.500 m.D. 0.143 m.E. 1.00 m

I'm lost on how to answer the a-section of this question and wasn't able to reach the b-section.
A spring with a spring constant of 335 N/m is initially compressed by a distance of 0.045 m from its equilibrium position. A mass of 0.045 kg is then held against the compressed spring and released from rest while upon a horizontal, frictionless surface. Assuming that the spring then pushes the mass across the surface, with speed does the mass leave the spring? Assume proper SI Units.
