A ball of mass $m_1$ falls from height $h_1$ from rest to strike a spring of force constant $K$, which forces another ball of mass $m_2$ to jump on a horizontal floor at a height $h_2$ below from it. Find the horizontal distance at which ball of mass $m_2$ strikes from the position of start :- [Spring does not move]

Whether the spring force is conservative or non-conservative ?

$A$ ball of mass $m = 60gm$ is shot with speed $v_0 = 22m/s$ into the barrel of spring gun of mass $M = 240g$ initially at rest on $a$ frictionless surface. The ball sticks in the barrel at the point of maximum compression of the spring. What fraction of initial kinetic energy of the ball is now stored in the spring?

Two similar springs $P$ and $Q$ have spring constants $K_P$ and $K_Q$, such that $K_P > K_Q .$ They are stretched first by the same amount (case $a$), then by the same force (case $b$). The work done by the springs $W_P$ and $W_Q$ are related as, in case $(a)$ and case $(b)$ respectively
