You drop a block from rest. The block lands on the spring (spring constant = 160 N/m) and compresses it 0.5 m before the block and spring momentarily come to rest. (The spring then pushes the block upward.) What is the mass of the block? *I tried using conservation of energy but think I am plugging in the wrong values. Any help is appreciated!
