To stimulate car accident , auto manufacturers study the collision of moving car with mounted springs of different spring constants . Consider a typical stimulation with a car of mass 800 kg moving with a speed 36.0km/h on a smooth road and colliding with a horizontally mounted spring of spring constant 6.25 xx10^(3)Nm^(-1) .What is the maximum compressionof the spring ?
