Two blocks of masses m_(1) and m_(2) are connected by a massless spring and placed on smooth surface. The spring initially stretched and released. Then :

Two blocks A and B of masses m_A and m_B are connected together by means of a spring and are resting on a horizontal frictionless table. The blocks are then pulled apart so as to stretch the spring and then released. Show that the kinetic energies of the blocks are, at any instant inversely proportional to their masses.

Two blocks of masses m = 2 kg and m = 8 kg are connected to a spring of force constant K = 1 kN//m . The spring is compressed by 20 cm and the two blocks are held in this position by a string. The system is placed on a horizontal smooth surface and given a velocity u = 3 m//s perpendicular to the spring. The string snaps while moving. Find the speed of the block of mass m when the spring regains its natural length.
