Problem 1 An object with m1 = 5kg is attached to a spring of negligible mass. This mass/spring combination is then slid horizont
ally on a frictionless surface with a velocity of 5 m/s towards a stationary object with m2 = 6kg. Upon impact, the spring compresses, then we examine two cases. First, find the velocities of the two objects assuming the spring completely relaxes again after the interaction. Second, assume that m2, after they separate, slides up a frictionless incline. (a)What is the relative speed of the masses when the spring is maximally compressed?
