Two blocks of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a spring of spring constant $k$,initially at their natural length as shown. $A$ sharp impulse is given to mass $m_2$ so that it acquires a velocity $v_0$ towards the right. If the system is kept on a smooth floor,find the maximum elongation that the spring will suffer.

$A$ block of mass $m$ slides from rest at a height $H$ on a frictionless inclined plane as shown in the figure. It travels a distance $d$ across a rough horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu$ and compresses a spring of spring constant $k$ by a distance $x$ before coming to rest momentarily. Then the spring extends and the block travels back attaining a final height of $h$. Then,

$A$ ball of mass $m_1$ falls from height $h_1$ from rest to strike a spring of force constant $K$,which forces another ball of mass $m_2$ to jump on a horizontal floor at a height $h_2$ below it. Find the horizontal distance at which the ball of mass $m_2$ strikes the floor from the position of the start. [Assume the spring is fixed and the collision is elastic].
