    $4 \, mg$
  • B
    $\frac{mg}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{3 \, mg}{2}$
  • D

When a $4\, kg$ mass is hung vertically on a light spring that obeys Hooke's law,the spring stretches by $2\, cm$. The work required to be done by an external agent in stretching this spring by $5\, cm$ will be ......... $J$ $(g = 9.8\, m/s^2)$.

$A$ ring of mass $m$ is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant $k$ and natural length $l_0$. The other end of the spring is fixed,and the ring can slide on a smooth horizontal rod as shown. Now,the ring is shifted to position $B$ and released. The speed of the ring when the spring attains its natural length is:
