Question about spring compression. Work and Energy Physics Gr.12 question?

While at an amusement park, Steven decides to ride a bumper car (total mass= 250.0 kg). Steven steps on the gas and reaches the car’s top speed of 2.05 m/s before running into a wall. The car’s bumper is mounted on a spring that compresses 0.100m when a 200. N force is applied to it. What is the maximum compression of the spring when Steven hits the wall?
