Blocks A (mass 5.00 kg ) and B (mass 9.00 kg ) move on a frictionless, horizontal surface. Initially, block B is at rest and block A is moving toward it at 5.00 m/s . The blocks are equipped with ideal spring bumpers. The collision is head-on, so all motion before and after the collision is along a straight line. Let +x be the direction of the initial motion of block A.
Part A
Find the maximum energy stored in the spring bumpers.
Part B
Find the velocity of block A when the energy stored in the spring bumpers is maximum.
Part C
Find the velocity of block B when the energy stored in the spring bumpers is maximum.
Part D
Find the velocity of block A after they have moved apart.
Part E
Find the velocity of B after they have moved apart.

Consider a uniformly charged ring in the xy plane, centered at the origin. the ring has radius a and positive charge qdistributed evenly along its circumference. a)what is the direction of the electric field at any point on the z axis? . b)what is the magnitude of the electric field along the positive z axis? use k in your answer, where k=14πϵ0. d)the ball will oscillate along the z axis between z=d and z=−d in simple harmonic motion. what will be the angular frequency ω of these oscillations? use the approximation d≪a to simplify your calculation; that is, assume that d2+a2≈a2. express your answer in terms of given charges, dimensions, and constants
