A block of mass \(2~\text{kg}\) moving with a velocity of \(10~\text{m/s}\) on a smooth surface hits a spring of force constant \(80\times10^3~\text{N/m}\) as shown in the figure. The maximum compression in the spring will be:
1. \(5~\text{cm}\)
2. \(10~\text{cm}\)
3. \(15~\text{cm}\)
4. \(20~\text{cm}\)
A block of mass \(m\) initially at rest, is dropped from a height \(h\) onto a spring of force constant \(k.\) If the maximum compression in the spring is \(x,\) then:
1. \(m g h = \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}\)
2. \(m g \left(h + x\right) = \frac{1}{2} k x^{2}\)
3. \(m g h = \frac{1}{2} k \left(x + h\right)^{2}\)
4. \(m g \left(h + x \right) = \frac{1}{2} k \left(x + h \right)^{2}\)
1. | no work is done by the tangential force. |
2. | no work is done by the centripetal force. |
3. | work done by the tangential force is always positive. |
4. | work done by the centripetal force is negative. |
What is the work done by gravity on block \(A\) in \(2\) seconds after the blocks are released? (Pulley is light)

2. \( 200 ~\text J\)
3. \(120 ~\text J\)
4. \( 24 ~\text J\)
A weight 'mg' is suspended from a spring. The energy stored in the spring is U. The elongation in the spring is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
1. \(50~\text{J}\)
2. \(100~\text{J}\)
3. \(25~\text{J}\)
4. Zero
A block is carried slowly up an inclined plane. If \(W_f\) is work done by the friction, \(W_N\) is work done by the reaction force, \(W_g\) is work done by the gravitational force, and \(W_{ex}\) is the work done by an external force, then choose the correct relation(s):
1. \(W _N + W _f + W _g + W _{ex} = 0\)
2. \(W _N = 0\)
3. \( W _f + W _{ex} = - W _g\)
4. All of these
The principle of conservation of energy implies that:
1. the total mechanical energy is conserved.
2. the total kinetic energy is conserved.
3. the total potential energy is conserved.
4. the sum of all types of energies is conserved.
