All surfaces (inclined or horizontal) are m frictionless. V = 0 A particle of mass m is released from rest at the top of an inclined surface, as shown. At the bottom of the incline, it hits and h sticks to a block of mass M which is fixed M to a spring (spring constant k), causing the spring to become compressed.

(c)
All surfaces (inclined or horizontal) are
m
frictionless.
V =0
A particle of mass m is released from rest
at the top of an inclined surface, as shown.
At the bottom of the incline, it hits and
h
sticks to a block of mass M which is fixed
M
to a spring (spring constant k), causing the
spring to become compressed.
