3. A block of mass M is on a horizontal surface and is attached to a spring, spring constant k. If the spring is compressed an amount A and the block released from rest, how far from unstretched position will it go before stopping if there is no friction between the block and the surface? How will this answer change is the block is not attached to the spring?? Spring problem revisited

5. Block of mass m has a spring connected to the bottom. You release it from a given height H and want to know how close the block will get to the floor. The spring has spring constant k and natural length L. H y=0
