Explain the elastic potential energy of spring and obtain an expression for this energy.

A massless platform is kept on a light elastic spring as shown in fig. When a sand particle of mass $0.1\; kg$ is dropped on the pan from a height of $0.24 \;m$, the particle strikes the pan and spring is compressed by $0.01\; m$.

From what height should the particle be dropped to cause a compression of $0.04\; m$.

Pulley and spring are massless and the friction is absent everwhere. $5\, kg$ block is  released from rest. The speed of $5\, kg$ block when $2\, kg$ block leaves the contact  with ground is (take force constant of the spring $K = 40\, N/m$ and $g = 10\, m/s^2)$

A vertical spring with force constant $k$ is fixed on a table. A ball of mass $m$ at a height $h$ above the free upper end of the spring falls vertically on the spring so that the spring is compressed by a distance $d.$ The net work done in the process is
