Two blocks of M and 3M are placed on a horizontal, frictionless surface. A light spring is attached to one of them, and the blocks are pushed together with the spring between them. A cord initially holding the blocks together is burned; after this, the block of mass 3M moves to the right with a speed of 2.00 m/s. 
(a) What is the speed of the block of mass M?
(b) Find the original elastic energy in the spring if M = 0.30 kg.
