A block of mass
m sliding on a smooth horizontal surface with a velocity
→v meets a long horizontal spring fixed at one end and having spring constant
k as shown in figure. Find the maximum compression of the spring . Will the velocity of the block be the same as
→v when it comes back to the original position shown?
