The 100-lb weight is released from rest in position 1. The spring constant is k=120 lb/ft, and the springs are unstretched in position 2.(Figure)

If the coefficient of restitution of the impact of the weight with the workpiece in position 2 is e=0.6, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the weight immediately after the impact?
