To simulate car accidents, auto manufacturers study the collisions of moving cars with mounted springs of different spring constants. Consider a typical simulation with a car of mass $1000\; kg$ moving with a speed $18.0\; km / h$ on a rough road having $\mu$ to be $0.5$ and colliding with a horizontally mounted spring of spring constant $6.25 \times 10^{3} \;N m ^{-1} .$ What is the maximum compression of the spring in $m$?

$A$ small block of mass $m$ is placed on $a$ wedge of mass $M$ as shown, which is initially at rest. All the surfaces are frictionless . The spring attached to the other end of wedge has force constant $k$. If $a'$ is the acceleration of $m$ relative to the wedge as it starts coming down and $A$ is the acceleration acquired by the wedge as the block starts coming down, then  Maximum velocity of $M$ is:

What is spring constant ? On which the work done by a spring depends ?

$A$ $1.0\, kg$ block collides with a horizontal weightless spring of force constant $2.75 Nm^{-1}$ as shown in figure. The block compresses the spring $4.0\, m$ from the rest position. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and horizontal surface is $0.25$, the speed of the block at the instant of collision is …………….. $\mathrm{m}/ \mathrm{s}^{-1}$

A block is simply released from the top of an inclined plane as shown in the figure above. The maximum compression in the spring when the block hits the spring is :
