A blob of clay of mass M is dropped onto a spring from a height h above the end of the spring. If the spring compresses by an amount d as the blob comes to rest, what is the spring constant k?

I need assistance making a formula to solve my problem.

A 350-g block is dropped onto a vertical spring with spring constant k =110.0 N/m. The block becomes attached to the spring, and the spring compresses 50.6 cm before momentarily stopping. The speed just before the block hits the spring is 8.4 m/s. The work done by the spring force is -14.1J. The work done by weight is 1.74 J. If the speed at impact is doubled, what is the maximum compression of the spring

You drop a block (5.47 kg) from a height of 21.61 m onto spring (k = 93.2 N/m). The spring compresses and then relaunches the ball. We will assume that air drag acts as a constant external force when the ball is travelling in the air. F(drag) = 2.7 N What is the work done by external forces when the block falls to the ground ?
