A block on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass. The other end of the spring is attached to a wall, and there is negligible friction between the block and the horizontal surface. The block- spring system is then placed into simple harmonic motion. The figure shows a graph of the velocity of the block as a function of time. At which of the following times does the block-spring system have maximum spring potential energy? 1.5 s В 2.0 s C 3.5 s 4.5 s
