Question: The 5 - Ib cylinder is falling from A with a speed v A = 1 0 [ f t s ] onto the platform.

The 5-Ib cylinder is falling from A with a speed vA=10[fts] onto the platform. Determine the maximum displacement in feet of the platform, caused by the collision. The spring has an unstretched length of 1.00ft(so it is initially at it's lowest energy state). Neglect the mass of the platform and spring and any energy lost during the collision.
