$A$ small ball $B$ of mass $m$ is suspended with a light inelastic string of length $L$ from a block $A$ of the same mass $m$,which can move on a smooth horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The ball is displaced by an angle $\theta$ from the equilibrium position and then released. The maximum velocity of the block during the subsequent motion of the system after the release of the ball is

$A$ block of mass $m$ is connected to another block of mass $M$ by a massless spring of spring constant $k$. The blocks are kept on a smooth horizontal plane. Initially,the blocks are at rest and the spring is unstretched. Then a constant force $F$ starts acting on the block of mass $M$ to pull it. Find the force acting on the block of mass $m$.
