$A$ small block of mass $200 \ g$ is placed on a horizontal slab at a height of $2 \ m$ above the floor. The block is pressed against a horizontal spring fixed at one end to compress the spring by $10.0 \ cm$. Upon releasing, the block moves horizontally until it leaves the spring. Calculate the horizontal distance covered by the block after leaving the slab and just before hitting the ground. The spring constant is $50 \ N \ m^{-1}$. (Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $m$)

The figure below shows a small mass connected to a string,which is attached to a vertical post. If the ball is released when the string is horizontal as shown below,the magnitude of the total acceleration (including radial and tangential) of the mass as a function of the angle $\theta$ is

Two beads $A$ and $B$ of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ respectively are placed on a smooth vertical circular wire of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. Bead $A$ is given a very gentle push so that it slides down and collides with bead $B$ and comes to rest. After the collision,bead $B$ reaches the height of the center of the circle. Then $m_1 : m_2$ is equal to:
