What is the balls speed immediately after the collision


A 150g block on a frictionless table is firmly attached to one end of a spring with k = 30N/m . The other end of the spring is anchored to the wall. A 30g ball is thrown horizontally toward the block with a speed of 5.7m/s

Part A: If the collision is perfectly elastic, what is the ball's speed immediately after the collision?

Part B: What is the maximum compression of the spring?

Part C: Repeat part A for the case of a perfectly inelastic collision.

Part D: Repeat part B for the case of a perfectly inelastic collision.
