A ball of mass $m$ suspended from a rigid support by an inextensible massless string is released from a height $h$ above its lowest point. At its lowest point, it collides elastically with a block of mass $2 m$ at rest on a frictionless surface. Neglect the dimensions of the ball and the block. After the collision, the ball rises to a maximum height of

A spring-block system is resting on a frictionless floor as shown in the figure. The spring constant is $2.0 N m ^{-1}$ and the mass of the block is $2.0 kg$. Ignore the mass of the spring. Initially the spring is in an unstretched condition. Another block of mass $1.0 kg$ moving with a speed of $2.0 m s ^{-1}$ collides elastically with the first block. The collision is such that the $2.0 kg$ block does not hit the wall.
