An object of mass m starts from rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless incline

Question:

An object of mass m starts from rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless incline of angle &. While sliding, it contacts an unstressed spring of negligible mass as shown in Figure P8.10. The object slides an additional distance x as it is brought momentarily to rest by compression of the spring (of force constant k). Find the initial separation d between object and spring.
