The system shown in the figure is in equilibrium and at rest. The spring and string are massless. Now, the string is cut. The acceleration of mass $2m$ and $m$ just after the string is cut will be:

Two massless springs of spring constants $K_1$ and $K_2$ are connected in series, suspended vertically, and a mass is attached to the free end. If $x_1$ and $x_2$ are their respective extensions and $F$ is the stretching force, what is the total extension produced?

The figure shows two cases. In the first case,a spring (spring constant $K$) is pulled by two equal and opposite forces $F$ at both ends. In the second case,it is pulled by a force $F$ at one end while the other end is fixed. The extensions $(x)$ in the springs will be:

$A$ body of mass $m$ is suspended from an ideal spring of force constant $k$. The expected change in the position of the body due to an additional force $F$ acting vertically downwards is

Two masses of $1 \, kg$ and $2 \, kg$ respectively are connected by a massless spring as shown in the figure. $A$ force of $20 \, N$ acts on the $2 \, kg$ mass. At the instant when the $1 \, kg$ mass has an acceleration of $10 \, m/s^2$ towards the right,the acceleration of the $2 \, kg$ mass is ......... $m/s^2$.
