question 2

Multiple Choice

A box of mass m is pressed against (but is not attached to) an ideal spring of force constant k and negligible mass,compressing the spring a distance x.After it is released,the box slides up a frictionless incline as shown in the figure and eventually stops.If we repeat this experiment but instead compress the spring a distance of 2x

• A)the box will go up the incline twice as high as before.

• D)just as it moves free of the spring,the box will have twice as much kinetic energy as before.
• E)just before it is released,the box has twice as much elastic potential energy as before.
