Two particles with mass $m_1$ = $16\ kg$ and $m_2$ = $2\ kg$ slide as unit with a common velocity of $12\ ms^{-1}$ on a level frictionless surface. Between them is a compressed massless spring with spring constant $k$ = $100\ Nm^{-1}$ . The spring, originally compressed by $25\ cm$ , is suddenly released, sending the two masses, which are connected to the spring, flying apart from each other. The orientation of the spring w.r.t. the initial velocity is shown in diagram. What is the relative velocity of separation in $ms^{-1}$ , after the particles lose contact? ................$m/s$

Find the maximum tension in the spring if initially spring at its natural length when block is released from rest.
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 $S_1$, Work done on $S_1$ is more than $S_2$
STATEMENT2: $k_1 < k_2$
A $2\ kg$ block slides on a horizontal floor with a speed of $4\ m/s$. It strikes a uncompressed spring, and compresses it till the block is motionless. The kinetic friction force is $15\ N$ and spring constant is $10,000\ N/m$. The spring compresses by ............. $\mathrm{cm}$
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
$A$ small block of mass $m$ is placed on $a$ wedge of mass $M$ as shown, which is initially at rest. All the surfaces are frictionless . The spring attached to the other end of wedge has force constant $k$. If $a'$ is the acceleration of $m$ relative to the wedge as it starts coming down and $A$ is the acceleration acquired by the wedge as the block starts coming down, then Maximum retardation of $M$ is:
