Q.

Two identical blocks A and B are connected by a spring as shown in figure. Block A is not connected to the wall parallel to y-axis. B is compressed from the natural length of spring and then left. Neglect friction. Match the following two columns.

P compressed state of spring

Q natural length of spring
 Question Image
From P to Q
aB =KxmBaCM =mBaBmA+mB=(mB)(Kx)mA+mB
From P to Q, compression x decreases. Therefore, aCM decreases. After  Q , A leaves contact with wall, spring comes in its natural length. Net force on system becomes zero.
Therefore,  aCM  becomes zero.
From P to Q, velocity of B, therefore velocity of COM will increase. After that a_CM becomes zero. Therefore, vCM  becomes constant.
