A small both \(A\) of mass \(m\) is attached to a massless rigid rod of length \(1~\text{m}\) pivoted at point \(P\) and kept at an angle of \(60^{\circ}\) with vertical as shown in figure. At distance of \(1~\text{m}\) below point \(P\), an identical bob \(B\) is kept at rest on a smooth horizontal surface that extends to a circular track of radius \(R\) as shown in figure. If bob \(B\) just manages to complete the circular path of radius \(R\) upto a point \(Q\) after being hit elastically by bob \(A\), then radius \(R\) is: (in m)

A block of mass \(2~\text{kg}\) is attached to one end of a massless spring whose other end is fixed at a wall. The spring-mass system moves on a frictionless horizontal table. The spring's natural length is \(2~\text{m}\) and spring constant is \(200~\text{N/m.} \) The block is pushed such that the length of the spring becomes \(1~\text{m}\) and then released. At distance \({x ~\text m} (x<2) \) from the wall. the speed of the block will be:
