A spring initially stores 5.0 J. It launches a trolley along a horizontal track and finishes unstretched. During launch, 0.80 J is transferred to thermal stores. The trolley then loses a further 1.2 J to thermal stores. It started at rest. What fraction of the initial spring energy remains in the kinetic store of the trolley?
