Two blocks slide on a collision course across a frictionless surface, as in the figure. The resulting collision is inelastic. The first block has mass ,M = 1.40 kg and is initially sliding due north at a speed of Vi = 9.15 m/s. The second block has mass ,m = 7.20 ✕ 10−2 kg and is initially sliding at a speed of  vi = 11.5 m/s directed at an angle θ = 27.5° south of east. Immediately after the inelastic collision,...

Two blocks with masses 3.0 kg and 5.0 kg are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface. A light spring is placed in a horizontal position between the blocks. The blocks are pushed together, compressing the spring, and then released from rest. After contact with the spring ends, the 5.0-kg mass has a speed of 2.0 m/s. How much potential energy was stored in the spring when the blocks were released?
