As shown in the figure, an object with a natural length of L = 30 cm and a spring constant of k = 30.0 N / m and a mass of m= 0.30 kg connected to a spring is attached on a frictionless slope forming = 30° with a horizontal plane. When the object was released quietly, the spring contracted and stopped. Answer the following questions. (1) Find the length x at which the spring contracts. (2) Find the potential energy Us of the spring at the stationary position. (3) Find the potential energy Ug of gravity at a stationary position.
