$A$ block of mass $M$ moving on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a spring of spring constant $K$, as shown in the figure. If the spring compresses by a length $L$, then the maximum momentum of the block is:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\frac{ML^2}{K}$
  • C
    $L \sqrt{MK}$
  • D
    $\frac{KL^2}{2M}$
