QuestionDetails: a) Determine the spring constant of the spring. Latter the two blocks are on frictionless horizontal surface.Block II is stationary and block I approaches with the speed of V,as shown in the figure b,c,d. b) The spring compression is a maximum when the blocks havethe same velocity. Briefly explain why is this so. c) Determine the maximum compression of the spring during thecollision. d) Determine the velocity of the block II after the collision,when block I has seperated from the spring.

Explanation / Answer

v2=[m2-m1]u2/[m1+m2] +    [2m1u1/m1+m2]

where m1=m

m2=2m

u2=0

u1=v

solving we will get the answer,
