In the figure shown a massless spring of stiffness k and natural length l_(0) is rigidly attached to a block of mass m and is in vertical position. A wooden ball of mass m is released from rest to fall under gravity. Having fallen a height h the ball strikes the spring and gets stuck up in the spring at the top. What should be the minimum value of h so that the lower block will just lose contact with the ground later on ? Assume that l_(0) gt gt (4mg)/(k) . Neglect any loss of energy. (Given k=mg//2 )
