Mass of plate and springs and any energy lost

Reference no: EM131035178

Four inelastic cables are attached to a plate and hold the 1-ft-long spring in compression when no weight is on the plate. There is also an undeformed spring nested within this compressed spring. If the block, having a weight of is moving downward at v = 4 ft/s when it is 2 ft above the plate, determine the maximum compression in each spring after it strikes the plate. Neglect the mass of the plate and springs and any energy lost in the collision.
