A block of mass $M$ is attached to the lower end of a vertical spring. The spring is hung from a ceiling and has force constant value $k.$ The mass is released from rest with the spring initially unstretched. The maximum extension produced in the length of the spring will be
$2 Mg/k$
$4 Mg/k$
$Mg/2k$
$Mg/k$
A toy gun fires a plastic pellet with a mass of $0.5\ g$. The pellet is propelled by a spring with a spring constant of $1.25\ N/cm$, which is compressed $2.0\ cm$ before firing. The plastic pellet travels horizontally $10\ cm$ down the barrel (from its compressed position) with a constant friction force of $0.0475\ N$. What is the speed (in $SI\ units$) of the bullet as it emerges from the barrel?
A spring is compressed between two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ placed on a horizontal frictionless surface as shown in the figure. When the blocks arc released, they have initial velocity of $v_1$ and $v_2$ as shown. The blocks travel distances $x_1$ and $x_2$ respectively before coming to rest. The ratio $\left( {\frac{{{x_1}}}{{{x_2}}}} \right)$ is
In a spring gun having spring constant $100\, {N} / {m}$ a small ball $'B'$ of mass $100\, {g}$ is put in its barrel (as shown in figure) by compressing the spring through $0.05\, {m}$. There should be a box placed at a distance $'d'$ on the ground so that the ball falls in it. If the ball leaves the gun horizontally at a height of $2\, {m}$ above the ground. The value of $d$ is $....{m} .$ $\left(g=10\, {m} / {s}^{2}\right)$
A one kg block moves towards a light spring with a velocity of $8\, m/s$. When the spring is compressed by $3\, m$, its momentum becomes half of the original momentum. Spring constant of the spring is :-
A body of mass $ 0.1 kg $ moving with a velocity of $10 m/s$ hits a spring (fixed at the other end) of force constant $ 1000 N/m $ and comes to rest after compressing the spring. The compression of the spring is .............. $\mathrm{m}$
