Problem

A vertical spring of force constant 400 N m−1400\,\text{N}\,\text{m}^{-1} is compressed by 0.20 m0.20\,\text{m} by a 1.0 kg1.0\,\text{kg} block and then released. Determine the maximum height (measured from the spring’s natural length) that the block will rise after losing contact with the spring. Neglect air resistance.
