$A$ block of mass $M$ moving on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a spring of spring constant $K$, as shown in the figure. If the spring compresses by a length $L$, then the maximum momentum of the block is:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\frac{ML^2}{K}$
  • C
    $L \sqrt{MK}$
  • D
    $\frac{KL^2}{2M}$

$A$ car of mass $1000 \,kg$ having a velocity of $10 \,ms^{-1}$ collides with a horizontally mounted spring. If the spring constant is $4000 \,Nm^{-1}$, then the maximum compression of the spring is: (in $\,m$)

When a spring is stretched by $10 \ cm$, the potential energy stored is $E$. When the spring is stretched by $10 \ cm$ more, the potential energy stored in the spring becomes (in $E$)

$A$ block of mass $m$ initially at rest is dropped from a height $h$ onto a spring of force constant $k$. If the maximum compression in the spring is $x$,then:

$A$ block of mass $m$ is pushed against a spring with spring constant $k$ which is attached to a wall. The block slides on a frictionless table as shown in the figure. The natural length of the spring is $\ell_0$ and it is compressed to half of its natural length when the block is released. What will be the final velocity of the block?
