Physics

A block of mass m1 = 1.60 kg initially moving to the right witha speed of 4.00 m / s on a track
horizontal without friction and collides with a spring attached toa second block of mass m2 = 2.10 kg that initially
moves to the left with a speed of 2.50 m / s. The spring constantis 600 N / m.
a) Find the speeds of the two blocks after the collision.
b) During the collision, at the instant when block 1 moves to theright with a speed of 3.00 m / s, determine the
speed of block 2.
c) Determine the distance that the spring is compressed at thatinstant.
