Two masses m(1) and m(2) connected by a ...

Two masses `m_(1)` and `m_(2)` connected by a light spring of natural length `l_(0)` is compressed completely and tied by a string. This system while moving with a velocity `v_(0)` along `+ve x`-axis pass through the origin at `t=0`. At this position the string snaps. Postion of mass `m_(1)` at time `t` is given by the equation. `x_(1) (t)=v_(0)t-A(1-cosomegat)` calculate :
(a) Position of the particle `m_(2)` as a function of time.
(b) `l_(0)` in terms of `A`.
