A .500kg block attached to a spring with length .60m and force constant 40.0 N/m, is at rest with the back of the block at point A on a frictionless horizontal air table. The mass of the spring is negligible. You move the block to the right along the surface by pulling with a constant 20.0 N horizontal force. when the back of the block reaches point B, you let go of the block. In the subsequent motion, how close does the block get to the wall where the left end of the spring is attached?

You are asked to design spring bumpers for the walls of a parking garage. A freely rolling 1200-kg car moving at 0.65 m/s is to compress the spring no more than 0.090 m before stopping. What should be the force constant of the spring? Assume that the spring has negligible mass.
