In Figure 7.7, a 5.00-kg block is moving at 5.00 m/s along a horizontal frictionless surface toward an ideal spring that is attached to a wall. After the block collides with the spring, the spring is compressed a maximum distance of 0.68 m
What is the speed of the block when the spring is compressed to only one-half of the maximum distance?
