Problem

A vertical light spring of constant

500\,\text{N\,m}^{-1}

is compressed by

0.10\,\text{m}

by a

1.0\,\text{kg}

block resting on it. The block is then released from rest and leaves the spring when the spring reaches its natural length. Calculate the maximum height

h

(measured above the spring’s natural length position) that the block will rise. Take

g = 9.8\,\text{m\,s}^{-2}

. a)

0.52\,\text{m}

0.155\,\text{m}

0.26\,\text{m}

0.13\,\text{m}
