When a spring is stretched by $2\,\, cm$ , it stores $100\,\, J$ of energy. If it is stretched further by $2\,\, cm$ , the stored energy will be increased by ............. $\mathrm{J}$

A block is fastened to a horizontal spring. The block is pulled to a distance $x =10\,cm$ from its equilibrium position (at $x =0$ ) on a frictionless surface from rest. The energy of the block at $x =5$ $cm$ is $0.25\,J$. The spring constant of the spring is $.........Nm ^{-1}$

A spring with spring constant $k $  is extended from $x = 0$to$x = {x_1}$. The work done will be

Define spring constant and write its unit.

In a spring gun having spring constant $100\, {N} / {m}$ a small ball $'B'$ of mass $100\, {g}$ is put in its barrel (as shown in figure) by compressing the spring through $0.05\, {m}$. There should be a box placed at a distance $'d'$ on the ground so that the ball falls in it. If the ball leaves the gun horizontally at a height of $2\, {m}$ above the ground. The value of $d$ is $....{m} .$ $\left(g=10\, {m} / {s}^{2}\right)$

$A$ block of mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v_0$ on a smooth horizontal surface strikes and compresses a spring of stiffness $k$ till mass comes to rest as shown in the figure. This phenomenon is observed by two observers:

$A$: standing on the horizontal surface

$B$: standing on the block To an observer

$A$, the work done by the normal reaction $N$ between the block and the spring on the block is
