$A$ mass of $2 \ kg$, initially at a height of $1.2 \ m$ above an uncompressed spring with spring constant $2 \times 10^4 \ N/m$, is released from rest to fall on the spring. Taking the acceleration due to gravity as $10 \ m/s^2$ and neglecting air resistance, the compression of the spring in $mm$ is:

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $40$
  • C
    $50$
  • D
    $60$
