a-find the speed of the block before it just touches the spring

b-find the speed of the block when the compression of the spring is 15cm

2. A 5 kg object with a speed of 4 m/s collides head-on with a 10 kg object moving toward it with a speed of 3 m/s. the 10 kg object stops dead after the collision.
