When a body is suspended from a spring and released slowly,the extension in the spring is $x$. If the body is released suddenly,the extension in the spring is:

Initially,a spring is at its natural length. $A$ block of mass $2 \, kg$ is attached to the lower end,and a block of mass $0.25 \, kg$ is at the top. If the system is released from the position where the spring is at its natural length,find the maximum force exerted by the system on the floor? (in $N$,take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$)

Two massless springs of spring constant $K_1$ and $K_2$ are connected in series,suspended vertically,and a certain mass is attached to the free end. If $e_1$ and $e_2$ are their respective extensions and $f$ is the stretching force,the total extension produced is:

$A$ spring of force constant $k$ is cut into lengths of ratio $1:2:3$. They are connected in series and the new force constant is $k'$. Then they are connected in parallel and the force constant is $k''$. Then $k':k''$ is

Two balls $A$ and $B$ of masses $100 \ gm$ and $250 \ gm$ are connected by a stretched massless spring and placed on a smooth table. When the balls are released simultaneously,the initial acceleration of ball $B$ is $10 \ cm/s^2$ towards the west. Find the magnitude and direction of the initial acceleration of ball $A$.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is suspended from an ideal spring of force constant $k$. The expected change in the position of the body due to an additional force $F$ acting vertically downwards is
