$A$ block $C$ of mass $m$ is moving with velocity $v_0$ and collides elastically with block $A$ of mass $m$ which is connected to another block $B$ of mass $2m$ through a spring of spring constant $k$. What is $k$ if $x_0$ is the compression of the spring when the velocity of $A$ and $B$ is the same?

  • A
    $\frac{mv_0^2}{x_0^2}$
  • B
    $\frac{mv_0^2}{2x_0^2}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{2} \frac{mv_0^2}{x_0^2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3} \frac{mv_0^2}{x_0^2}$

In the figure shown,two identical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each are placed in contact with each other on a frictionless horizontal surface. $A$ third ball of mass $M$ and radius $R$ is coming down vertically and has a velocity $v_0$ when it simultaneously hits the two balls and comes to rest. Then,each of the two bigger balls will move after the collision with a speed equal to:
