A small block of mass 100 g is pressed again a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the sprign through 5.0 cm. The spring constant is 100 N/m. When released, the block moves hroizontally till it leaves the spring. Where will it hit the ground 2 m below the spring?

A block of mass m is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring through (L_0)//(2) . The natural length of the spring is L_0 and spring constant k=(mg)//(L_0) . When released, the block moves horizontally on smooth surface till it leaves the spring. At what horizontal distance from O it strikes the ground.

    In figure a spring with k = 168 N//m is in its relaxed length and is at the top of a frictionless incline of angle theta = 37^(@) . The lower end of the incline is at distance D = 1 m from the end of the spring. A small blcok of mass 2 kg is pushed against the spring until the spring is compressed by 0.2 m and released from rest. What is the speed of the block at the instant the spring returns to its relaxed length (which is when the block loses contact with the spring)?
