$A$ small ball of mass $m$ is released at a height $R$ above the earth's surface,as shown in the figure. The ball enters a narrow groove and reaches a maximum depth of $R/2$ inside the earth before coming to rest momentarily. The groove contains an ideal spring of spring constant $K$ and natural length $R$. Find the value of $K$ if $R$ is the radius of the earth and $M$ is the mass of the earth.

$A$ body of mass $m$ is moving in a circular orbit of radius $R$ about a planet of mass $M$. At some instant,it splits into two equal masses.
