The block shown lies on a horizontal frictionless surface, and the spring constant is 62 N/m. Initially, the spring is at its relaxed length and the block is stationary at position x = 0. Then an applied force with a constant magnitude of 4.1 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the a axis, stretching the spring until the block stops. When that stopping point is reached, what is the position of the block in meters?

The block shown lies on a horizontal frictionless surface, and the spring
constant is 62 N/m. Initially, the spring is at its relaxed length and the block is
stationary at position x = 0. Then an applied force with a constant magnitude
of 4.1 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the a axis, stretching the
spring until the block stops. When that stopping point is reached, what is the
position of the block in meters?
