Which type of spring has fast oscillations: stiff or soft?

$A$ mass $m = 8\,kg$ is attached to a spring as shown in the figure and held in position so that the spring remains unstretched. The spring constant is $k = 200\,N/m$. The mass $m$ is then released and begins to undergo small oscillations. The maximum velocity of the mass will be ..... $m/s$ $(g = 10\,m/s^2)$.

$A$ spring is stretched by $0.20\, m$ when a mass of $0.50\, kg$ is suspended. When a mass of $0.25\, kg$ is suspended,its period of oscillation will be .... $sec$ $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$

If a watch with a wound spring is taken on to the moon,it

$A$ block of mass $m$ is at rest on another block of the same mass as shown in the figure. The lower block is attached to a spring. What is the maximum amplitude of motion such that both blocks remain in contact?

$A$ $2\, kg$ block moving with $10\, m/s$ strikes a spring of constant $\pi^2\, N/m$ attached to a $2\, kg$ block at rest kept on a smooth floor. The time for which the moving block remains in contact with the spring will be ... $\sec$.
