A physics student writes the elastic potential energy stored in a spring as `U=1/2KL^(2)+1/2Kx^(2),` where L is the natural length of the spring, x is extension or compression in it and K is its force constant. A block of mass M travelling with speed V hits the spring and compresses it. Find the maximum compression caused.

Answer» Correct Answer - `sqrt(M/K) .V`
