    Two blocks on a friction less table are held at rest with a compressed spring between them. When the blocks are released, the spring pushes them apart and they move in opposite directions. The spring has a spring constant of 215 N/m. One of the blocks moves away at 0.45 m/s while the other moves away at 0.90 m/s. The heavier of the two blocks has a mass of 1.4 kg. How far was the spring compressed in m?
