PeteK,
BTW, Your spring rate should not change because you cut the spring. The spring should just get shorter. Force=K(Delta x) where K is the spring constant (rate). You could use conservation of energy as well, but I don't know if that will help with your assumptions or not without thinking it through. Honestly, I think Jack21 and DV have the plan.
