A body of mass $1\,kg$ falls freely from a height of $100\,m,$ on a platform of mass $3\,kg$ which is mounted on a spring having spring constant $k = 1.25 \times 10^6\, N/m.$ The body sticks to the platform and the spring’s maximum compression is found to be $x.$ Given that $g = 10\,ms^{-2},$ the value of $x$ will be close to ................ $\mathrm{cm}$

In the diagram shown, no friction at any contact surface. Initially, the spring has no deformation. What will be the maximum deformation in the spring? Consider all the strings to be sufficiency large. Consider the spring constant to be $K$.
A block $'A'$ of mass $M$ moving with speed $u$ collides elastically with block $B$ of mass $m$ which is connected to block $C$ of mass $m$ with a spring. When the compression in spring is maximum the velocity of block $C$ with respect to block $A$ is (neglect friction)
This question has Statement $-1$ and Statement $-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
If two springs $S_1$ and $S_2$ of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$, respectively, are stretched by the same force, it is found that more work is done on spring $S_1$ than on spring $S_2$.
Statement $-1$: If stretched by the same amount, work done on $S_1$, will be more than that on $S_2$
Statement $-2$ : $k_1 < k_2$.
The length of a spring is a when $\alpha $ force of $4\,N$ is applied on it and the length is $\beta $ when $5\,N$ force is applied. Then the length of spring when $9\,N$ force is applied is
