  • A
    $\frac{5}{2} k$
  • B
    $\frac{3}{5} k$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{5} k$
  • D

Two blocks with masses $100 \text{ g}$ and $200 \text{ g}$ are attached to the ends of springs $A$ and $B$ as shown in the figure. The energy stored in spring $A$ is $E$. The energy stored in spring $B$,when the spring constants $k_{A}$ and $k_{B}$ of springs $A$ and $B$ respectively satisfy the relation $4k_{A} = 3k_{B}$,is:

$A$ spring has a spring constant $k$ and original length $l$. If it is cut into pieces in the ratio $\alpha : \beta : \gamma$,find the spring constant of each piece in terms of the original spring constant $k$ (where $\alpha, \beta$,and $\gamma$ are integers).

Initially,the spring is at its natural length and both blocks are at rest. Determine the maximum extension in the spring. Given $k = 20 \ N/m$,$m_1 = 0.5 \ kg$,$m_2 = 1 \ kg$,and $F = 1 \ N$.
