5.Work, Energy, Power and Collision
medium
$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ till mass comes to rest as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:
$A$: standing on the horizontal surface
$B$: standing on the block
To an observer $A,$ the net work done on the block is

A
$ - mv_0^2$
B
$+mv_0^2$
C
$-\frac{1}{2}mv_0^2$
D
zero
Solution
$ v_{0} \quad \frac{1}{2} m v_{0}^{2}$
$-\frac{1}{2} m v_{0}^{2}$
