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 $0.04\; m$.

Draw a plots of mechanical energy, potential energy and kinetic energy versus displacement for different position of a motion of a block attached to a spring.

Two bodies $A$ and $B$ of masses $m$ and $2m$ respectively are placed on a smooth floor. They are connected by a spring. A third body $C$ of mass $m$ moves with velocity $V_0$ along the line joining $A$ and $B$ and collides elastically with $A$ as shown in fig. At a certain instant of time $t_0$ after collision, it is found that instantaneous velocities of $A$ and $B$ are the same. Further at this instant the compression of the spring is found to be $x_0$. Determine the spring constant

A ring of mass $m$ is attached to a horizontal spring of spring constant $k$ and natural length $l_0$ . Other end of spring is fixed and ring can slide on a smooth horizontal rod as shown. Now the ring is shifted to position $B$ and released, speed of ring when spring attains it's natural length is

$A$ spring block system is placed on a rough horizontal floor. The block is pulled towards right to give spring an elongation less than $\frac{{2\mu mg}}{K}$ but more than $\frac{{\mu mg}}{K}$ and released.The correct statement is
