The steel ingot has a mass of 1800 kg. It travels along the conveyor at a speed v = 0.5 m/s when it collides with the “nested” spring assembly. If the stiffness of the outer spring is kA = 5 kN/m, determine the required stiffness kB of the inner spring so that the motion of the ingot is stopped at the moment the front, C, of the ingot is 0.3 m from the wall.
