In a spring gun having a spring constant $k = 100\, \text{N/m}$,a small ball $B$ of mass $m = 100\, \text{g}$ is placed in its barrel (as shown in the figure) by compressing the spring by $x = 0.05\, \text{m}$. $A$ box is placed at a distance $d$ on the ground so that the ball falls into it. If the ball leaves the gun horizontally at a height of $h = 2\, \text{m}$ above the ground,find the value of $d$ in meters. (Take $g = 10\, \text{m/s}^2$)

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $1$
  • D
    $0.5$
