The 0.5-kg cylinder A is released from rest from the position shown and drops the distance h1 = 0.6 m. It then collides with the 0.4-kg block B; the coefficient of restitution is e = 0.8. Determine the maximum downward displacement h2 of block B. Neglect all friction and assume that block B is initially held in place by a hidden mechanism until the collision begins. The two springs of modulus k = 500 N/m are initially unstretched, and the distance d = 0.8 m.
