When a 0.20-kg block is suspended from a vertically hanging spring, it stretches the spring from its original length of 0.040 m to 0.045 m. The same block is attached to the same spring and placed on a horizontal, frictionless surface as shown. The block is then pulled so that the spring stretches to a total length of 0.15 m. The block is released at time t = 0 s and undergoes simple harmonic motion.
-What is the total mechanical energy of the system at any instant?
A) 0.25 J
B) 0.49 J
C) 0.98 J
D) 4.4 J
E) 9.8 J
