Randall D. Knight β€” Work and Kinetic Energy: Problem 59

A spring of equilibrium length \( L_1 \) and spring constant \( k_1 \) hangs from the ceiling. Mass \( m_1 \) is suspended from its lower end. Then a second spring, with equilibrium length \( L_2 \) and spring constant \( k_2 \), is hung from the bottom of \( m_1 \). Mass \( m_2 \) is suspended from this second spring. How far is \( m_2 \) below the ceiling?
