$A$ block of mass $M$ is attached to the lower end of a vertical spring. The spring is hung from a ceiling and has a force constant $k$. The mass is released from rest with the spring initially unstretched. The maximum extension produced in the length of the spring will be

  • A
    $2 Mg/k$
  • B
    $4 Mg/k$
  • C
    $Mg/2k$
  • D
    $Mg/k$
