4/28 In the unstretched position the coils of the 1.5-kg spring are just touching one another, as shown in part a of the figure. In the stretched position the force P, proportional to x, equals 900 N when x = 500 mm. If end A of the spring is suddenly released, determine the velocity \(v_A\) of the coil end A, measured positive to the left, as it approaches its unstretched position at x = 0. What happens to the kinetic energy of the spring?
