A block of mass m attached with a spring and held by a person such that the spring is in natural length l_(0) . Now the man releases the block, the ratio of maximum compression in the spring in the given situation , to that of the compression at equilibrium position.

Figure. shows a rough horizontal plane which ends in a vertical wall, to which a spring is connected, having a force constant k. Initially spring is in its relaxed state. A block of mass m starts with an initial velocity u towards the spring from a distance l_(0) from the end of spring shown. When block strikes at the end ofthe spring, it compresses the spring and comes to rest. Find the maximum compression in the spring. The friction coefficient between the block and the floor is mu ..

Two equal masses are attached to the two ends of a spring of spring constant k. The masses are pulled out symmetrically to stretch the spring by a length x over its natural length. The work done by the spring on each mass is

A block of mass m is attached to one end of a mass less spring of spring constant k. the other end of spring is fixed to a wall the block can move on a horizontal rough surface. The coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is mu then the compession of the spring for which maximum extension of the spring becomes half of maximum compression is .

Two blocks A and B each of mass m are connected by a massless spring of natural length L and spring constant k. The blocks are initially resting on a smooth horizontal floor with the spring at its natural length. A third identical block C also of mass m moves on the floor with a speed v along the line joining A and B and collides with A. Then The kinetic energy of the A-B system at maximum compression of the spring is mv^(2)//4 The maximum compression of the spring vsqrt(m//3k) The kinetic energy of the A-B system at maximum compression The maximum coppression of the spring is vsqrt(m//k)
