Which of the following graph may represent the speed of block as a function of distance s from the wall w , when an iron block of mass m resting in contact with a support S is released when it has compressed the ideal spring on a smooth horizontal floor as shown. The block is not attached with the support S.

An engine is attached to a wagon through a shock absorber of length 1.5 m. The entire system with a total mass of 50000 kg was moving with a speed of 36 km h-1, when the brakes are applied to bring it to rest. In this process, the spring of the shock absorber gets compressed by 1.0 m. If 90% of the energy of the wagon is lost due to friction, the spring constant is

A block of mass m=2 kg is moving with velocity v0 towards a massless unstretched spring of force constant k=10 N m-1. The coefficient of friction between the block and the ground is, μ=15. Find the maximum value of v0 so that after pressing the spring, the block does not return back but stops there permanently.

A block of mass m is placed inside a smooth hollow cylinder of radius R whose axis is kept horizontally. Initially, the system was at rest. Now cylinder is given constant acceleration 2 g in the horizontal direction by an external agent. The maximum angular displacement of the block with the vertical is:
