Q.

A ring of mass m can slide over a smooth vertical rod as shown in figure. The ring is connected to a spring of force constant k=4mg/R , where 2R is the natural length of the spring. The other end of spring is fixed to the ground at a horizontal distance 2R from the base of the rod. If the mass is released at a height 1.5R, then the velocity of the ring as it reaches the ground is
