Two massless strings of length $5\, m$ hang from the ceiling very near to each other as shown in the figure. Two balls $A$ and $B$ of masses $0.25\, kg$ and $0.5\, kg$ are attached to the strings. The ball $A$ is released from rest at a height of $0.45\, m$ as shown in the figure. The collision between the two balls is completely elastic. Immediately after the collision,the kinetic energy of ball $B$ is $1\, J$. The velocity of ball $A$ just after the collision is

  • A
    $5\, m/s$ to the right
  • B
    $5\, m/s$ to the left
  • C
    $1\, m/s$ to the right
  • D
    $1\, m/s$ to the left

In the diagram shown,there is no friction at any contact surface. Initially,the spring has no deformation. What will be the maximum deformation in the spring? Consider all the strings to be sufficiently large. Consider the spring constant to be $K$.
