A 1.72 kg ball rolls on a frictionless horizontal surface at 4.19 m/s and collides with a stationary block of mass 1.23 kg which is attached to horizontal spring whose force constant is 1695 N/m. Right after impact, the ball bounces on the opposite direction at 1.59 m/s. To what distance will the spring be compressed?

Given:
m1=1.72kg,m2=1.23kg
v1x=4.19m/s,v2x=0
v1x′=−1.59m/s,k=1695N/m
The law of conservation of momentum says
m1v1x+m2v2x=m1v1x′+m2v2x′
Hence, the velocity of the block after collision with ball
