2. At one stage in a manufacturing line, a cubic electronic com onent with mass m ' ,20 g is released from rest at the to of a $.$ m long 90o696sha ed ram inclined at 22o. *he coefficient of kinetic friction between the com onent and the ram is k ' 0.25. "hen it reaches the bottom of the ram , the com onent falls a vertical distance of 0.+6 m before landing on a stationar( cart (mc ' 250 g! on a frictionless track. *he cart then carries the com onent to the ne.t stage in the assembl(. At the end of the track, a s ring slows the cart to rest so that the com onent can be icked u b( a mechanical claw. %f the s ring com resses a distance of ,2 cm as it slows the cart to rest, what is the value of the s ring constant#
