A block of mass $m$ starts at rest at height $h$ on a frictionless inclined plane. The block slides down the plane, travels across a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction $μ$ , and compresses a spring with force constant $k$ a distance $x$ before momentarily coming to rest. Then the spring extends and the block travels back across the rough surface, sliding up the plane. The block travels a total distance $d$ on rough horizontal surface. The correct expression for the maximum height $h’$ that the block reaches on its return is

A block $(B)$ is attached to two unstretched springs $\mathrm{S} 1$ and $\mathrm{S} 2$ with spring constants $\mathrm{k}$ and $4 \mathrm{k}$, respectively (see figure $\mathrm{I}$ ). The other ends are attached to identical supports $M1$ and $M2$ not attached to the walls. The springs and supports have negligible mass. There is no friction anywhere. The block $\mathrm{B}$ is displaced towards wall $1$ by a small distance $\mathrm{x}$ (figure $II$) and released. The block returns and moves a maximum distance $\mathrm{y}$ towards wall $2$ . Displacements $\mathrm{x}$ and $\mathrm{y}$ are measured with respect to the equilibrium position of the block $B$. The ratio $\frac{y}{x}$ is Figure: $Image$
