A block slides on a frictionless, horizontal surface with a speed of 1.32 m/s. The block encounters an unstretched spring and co
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Explanation:

The given time is 1 / 4 of the time period

So Time period  of oscillation.

= 4 x .4 =1.6 s

When the block reaches back its original position when it came in contact with the spring for the first time , the block and the spring will have maximum

velocity. After that spring starts unstretching , reducing its speed , so block loses contact as its velocity is not reduced .

So required velocity is the maximum velocity of the block while remaining in contact with the spring.

v ( max ) = w A = 1.32  m /s.
